Here’s the thing though - The Ravens could have just signed Hendrickson to start with and avoided all this - it’s not like he was left at the altar and they got him for a discount

They just gave $60 mil guaranteed to a 31 year old edge rush specialist

Maybe they got cold feet / reconsidered the pick value - but it’s not like the trade was lambasted in the media or fans were angry about it

I think it’s more likely they didn’t like something they saw in the medical then creating this mess for themselves because they changed their mind in 48 hrs

Either way - why does the NFL allow unofficial trades and signings at all ? Just start the season 4 days earlier or don’t allow .
Yeah it was just minor meniscus surgery for an injury that he could have continued to play on hence all the drama about him being upset for being sat the last two games. His own surgeon says he's ahead of schedule. What the Ravens did was within their right but they got cold feet and changed their mind. It is what it is.
