The Baltimore Ravens landed their potential star pass rusher in Trey Hendrickson, Maxx Crosby is back in Las Vegas for now, and Daniel Jones is staying in Indianapolis as part of a busy start to the NFL’s new league year.
The biggest move Wednesday came when the Ravens agreed to a four-year, $112 million contract with the 31-year-old Hendrickson — a four-time Pro Bowl defensive end — a day after backing out of a deal with the Las Vegas Raiders for Crosby over a failed physical, a person with knowledge of the deal told The Associated Press.
Hendrickson was an All-Pro for the Cincinnati Bengals in 2024, when he led the NFL with 17.5 sacks. He played in only seven games because of injuries last season, when he had four sacks, but he has reached double digits in sacks four times in the previous five seasons.
It was a quick pivot for the Ravens after the surprising development Tuesday night when they pulled out of the trade that was supposed to send two first-round picks to the Raiders.
A person with knowledge of Baltimore’s decision told the AP that Crosby failed his physical. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because those results are private.
