Maxx Crosby has made it clear that he’s not going anywhere.
The Las Vegas Raiders agreed to trade Crosby to the Baltimore Ravens for two first-round picks last week, but the Ravens backed out of the deal Tuesday, citing a failed physical.
Crosby, 28, reacted to the canceled trade on social media Wednesday night to declare that he’s not going anywhere.

“Everything happens for a reason. Don’t believe anything you hear and half of what you see. I’m a Raider. I’m back. Run that s—,” Crosby posted on X.
Crosby underwent surgery to repair a torn meniscus in January. After the Ravens cited Crosby’s failed physical as the reason the trade fell through, the star defender retweeted his agent’s tweet about the current status of his knee.

“Maxx remains on track with his recovery and, if anything, is ahead of schedule, according to his surgeon, Dr. Neal El Attrache. Maxx remains on track to return during the offseason program and will undoubtedly return as the dominant play destroyer he has been over the past 7 seasons,” Crosby’s agent, CJ LaBoy, posted on X.
The Ravens quickly pivoted after the Crosby deal fell through, signing former Cincinnati Bengals star Trey Hendrickson to a four-year, $112 million contract, with $60 million guaranteed.

Last season, in 15 games, Crosby recorded 73 tackles, 10 sacks and two forced fumbles. His sack numbers are particularly impressive because the team was losing so often that Crosby wasn’t given the same amount of opportunities to pressure the quarterback compared to defenders on better teams.
Crosby made the fifth Pro Bowl of his career last season.
