Maxx Crosby and the Ravens

On this episode of 3 & Out, we break down the fallout from the Maxx Crosby trade saga and what it means for the Raiders moving forward. How did things unravel, and where does the franchise go from here after one of the biggest stories of the offseason?

We also dive into several major moves around the league. The 49ers make a big addition by trading for Osa Odighizuwa, the Buffalo Bills bring in pass rusher Bradley Chubb, and the Kansas City Chiefs add another weapon by signing Kenneth Walker. Which teams made the biggest impact and how could these moves reshape the league?

Plus, a fan-favorite segment makes its return as Dad Diaries is back, with new stories, laughs, and the chaos that comes with life off the field.
