Maxx Crosby, star edge rusher for the Ravens, was supposed to be traded to the Ravens but the deal fell apart after a failed deal fell through. Crosby, who underwent surgery in January to repair a torn meniscus in his right knee, expressed frustration over the team's decision to back out of a deal to acquire him. He was told that the team would get more opinions and return to him with their decision, which left him feeling "f–king livid" and "confused." Crosby also revealed that he had never met with Ravens head coach Jesse Minter or general manager Eric DeCosta. The ordeal has reaffirmed Crosby's commitment to the Raiders.
