The Las Vegas Raiders are sending star defensive end Maxx Crosby to the Baltimore Ravens for two first-round draft picks, according to multiple media reports on Friday.
That draft haul includes the No. 14 pick in April's NFL Draft -- giving Las Vegas two top-14 picks along with its own No. 1 overall selection -- and Baltimore's 2027 first-round pick.
The deal can't officially be completed until the 2026 NFL league year begins on March 11. However, it was reported a day after the one-year anniversary of Crosby signing a three-year, $106.5 million extension with the Raiders.
Crosby, 28, has been selected for the Pro Bowl in each of the last five seasons and has received two second-team All-Pro honors. He has 69.5 career sacks, with at least seven sacks in each of his seven seasons with the Raiders, and also has 133 tackles for loss.
The standout pass rusher expressed frustration when he was placed on injured reserve with two games left in the 2025 season due to a reported knee injury. He reportedly left the facility that week before returning the following week.
In his seven seasons with the franchise, Crosby made the playoffs once, losing a 2021 wild-card game, while playing for five different head coaches.
In Baltimore, he's a splash addition for new head coach Jesse Minter, who was previously the defensive coordinator for the Los Angeles Chargers. The Ravens' defense finished last season 24th in the league in total defense (allowing 354.5 yards per game) and tied for 30th in sacks (30), with no player recording more than five sacks.
