It's not happening anymore.
It's the total shocker of the NFL offseason. Maxx Crosby is not being traded from the Las Vegas Raiders to the Baltimore Ravens.
The deal had been agreed to over the weekend, with the Ravens set to send two first-round picks to the Raiders for Crosby.
No trades can become official until the new league year on Wednesday, though, and on Tuesday night, the Raiders posted this message on social media:
"The Baltimore Ravens have backed out of our trade agreement for Maxx Crosby. We will have no further comment at this time."
It's a stunner.

Why aren't the Raiders trading Maxx Crosby to the Raiders?
The short answer, at the immediate time of the news breaking on Tuesday, is that no one knows.
Given the wording of the Raiders' message, this doesn't appear to have been a decision made by Vegas.
Something on the Baltimore side of the deal appears to have created a hold-up. It appears that Crosby's offseason knee surgery may have been the culprit.
Since nothing was official, these are all essentially handshake agreements until they can be submitted to the league. Teams don't want to pull out because it's not a great look -- and because they usually are happy with the business they've agreed to.
Something here spooked the Ravens. Maybe it was salary, or the trade return, or something they figured out about Crosby. Maybe they even have a different trade in their sights.
Whatever it is, it's an all-time shocker, and things just got very weird with whatever happens next in Baltimore, Vegas and with Crosby.
