Three days ago, theLas Vegas Raiders traded Maxx Crosby to the Baltimore Ravensfor two first-round draft picks. The premiere edge rusher headed to Baltimore and posted on his social account how lovely the place was, and everything about the blockbuster was huge news.
Here's the bigger news: Never mind.
The Ravens told the Raiders as much on Tuesday afternoon. And The Raiders are telling the world on their social media account.
The Raiders announced that the Ravens "have backed out of our trade agreement for Maxx Crosby." That means the Ravens are taking back their two first-round picks.
This is where a savvy reporter such as yours truly asks, was the Raiders account hacked?
And the answer from NFL sources is… nope.
The trade is off, at least for now.

Crosby left Baltimore Tuesday evening.
