In a surprising turn of events, the Baltimore Ravens backed out of a trade for Maxx Crosby after he failed a physical examination. The Ravens were prepared to send two first-round picks, including the No. 14 overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, to the Las Vegas Raiders for the defensive end. Instead, they quickly signed Trey Hendrickson to a four-year contract worth $112 million, which could reach up to $120 million with sack incentives. Hendrickson, who has recorded 81 career sacks and led the NFL with 17.5 sacks in both the 2023 and 2024 seasons, was a much-needed addition after the Ravens finished the 2025 season with only 30 sacks, tied for the third-fewest in the league. This trade announcement and subsequent fallout occurred on March 10, with Hendrickson officially joining the Ravens today, March 11.
