"No one will ever admit what the real truth is. Ultimately, it doesn't matter. I am where I'm supposed to be. I thought I was going to see [DeCosta] when I first got there. I don't know why. I'm not going to speculate. He just made the trade, and I didn't see him for five hours."
"I dapped up [Minter], and he had a blank face. Crosby said he was terrified after DeCosta then informed him that one of the doctors had concerns about his knee, and they wanted to get additional opinions."
"Crosby, 28, underwent surgery in January to repair a torn meniscus in his left knee. He was aware that he needed surgery in the fall but continued to play until the Raiders decided to shut him down for the final two games of last season."
Maxx Crosby, a Raiders defensive end with seven seasons and five Pro Bowl selections, was set to be traded to the Ravens for two first-round picks but the deal fell through due to medical concerns. Crosby described feeling confused and livid about the situation. He traveled to Washington, D.C. for a physical and MRI but had minimal interaction with Ravens general manager Eric DeCosta. After the medical evaluation, DeCosta informed Crosby that doctors had concerns about his knee and wanted additional opinions. Crosby had undergone surgery in January to repair a torn meniscus in his left knee, an injury he had been managing while playing the previous season.
