Five-time Pro Bowl edge rusher Maxx Crosby is heading to the Baltimore Ravens, two people with knowledge of the trade told The Associated Press on Friday night.Both people spoke on condition of anonymity because the deal cant be announced until the NFLs new year starts next week.The Las Vegas Raiders will receive two first-round picks from the Ravens, including the No. 14 overall pick in next months NFL draft, one of the people said.The 28-year-old Crosby had 10 sacks and a career-high 28 tackles for loss last season, and has reached double- digit sacks four times in his seven seasons.Baltimore, which has a first-year coach in Jesse Minter, is in a win-now mode with three-time All-Pro quarterback Lamar Jackson. Crosby is a significant boost for a defense that finished tied for 28th in the league in sacks with only 30 last season.He's the latest elite pass rusher to switch teams for a big price. Micah Parsons was traded from Dallas to Green Bay last year for two first-round picks and three-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle Kenny Clark.The last time the Ravens didnt have a first-round pick was 2012.Crosby had long maintained he wanted to play his entire career for the Raiders, but his frustration with the organizations struggles was evident even before a tumultuous end to last season, when the team chose to place him on injured reserve with two games remaining because of a knee injury. Crosby, who takes pride in not coming off the field despite playing with an assortment of injuries through much of his career, left the team facility after being informed of the decision.Given a chance a month ago to refute reports that he wanted out of Las Vegas, Crosby instead said such talk wasnt coming from him. However, he never said he wanted to return to the Raiders.I just sit back and laugh because I know my truth and when I go to bed at night, I have a smile on my face because I dont have to explain nothing to nobody, Crosby said in an appearance on The Herd with Colin Cowherd.He told Cowherd his focus is on rehabilitating from left knee surgery that took place about a month ago.Im ahead of schedule, and its business as usual, Crosby said. Its my eighth surgery in seven years. Its something that Ive gotten used to. Its all about perspective, about how you approach what you want to accomplish. Im willing to run that marathon.First-year Raiders coach Klint Kubiak and general manager John Spytek had said they wanted Crosby to remain on the team. Spytek said at the NFL scouting combine that he expected Crosby to be in the lineup when the team opens its season, but noted the club was willing to listen to trade offers. The Ravens clearly made an offer they couldn't refuse.The Raiders own the No. 1 pick in the draft and are widely expected to select Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza. This deal allows them to also address several other holes on their roster.They are likely to cut quarterback Geno Smith before the league year opens Wednesday. Las Vegas had nearly $122 million in salary-cap space before this deal, according to overthecap.com.___AP Sports Writers Mark Anderson and Noah Trister contributed to this report.___AP NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/nfl

The rise and fall of the garage start-up which set out to revolutionise the brewing industry.

Cleanliness may soon come at a price for Southwest travelers, and passengers are blasting the proposed policy.The Dallas-based airline is considering bringing in cabin cleaners between flights to clean only the premium extra legroom seat areas of the aircraft, according to reports.Coach cabins will reportedly not receive the same treatment.PASSENGERS RIP AIRLINE FOR NEW SEATING POLICY: IT IS AS BAD AS EVERYONE IS SAYING'"Southwest Airlines flight attendants tidy every aircraft between every flight today," a Southwest spokesperson told Fox News Digital Friday when asked about the reports. "That will continue, and, in addition, we are looking at potentially bringing in additional cleaners when needed, at certain airports to supplement not replace our standard cleaning efforts."We will continue to make sure our aircraft are ready for every customer, regardless of where their seats are on the plane," the spokesperson added.An airline flight attendants union board member posted a since-deleted video for crew members, saying he was concerned about the experiment the airline was trying in which premium cabins would be cleaned between every flight but not the whole aircraft.PASSENGERS REFUSING TO WEAR HEADPHONES ON FLIGHTS COULD BE KICKED OFF AIRCRAFT: ITS ABOUT TIME'The individual claimed he got a memo from Southwest Tuesday about the new cleaning experiment.He reportedly compared the proposed cleaning change to the upper class on the Titanic "having cigars and sipping brandy," while passengers below didn't get their seats cleaned."So up front, youve got these super clean airplanes. In the back, youve got half-hearted, tidied airplanes. The passengers are going to come on board. Theyre going to see it," he said, according to the blog "View from the Wing.""When passengers see whats going on, theyre going to be very upset."Southwest passengers took to Facebook and X to voice their frustrations about the potential policy."Southwest Airlines [is] only gonna clean your seat if it smells like money,"wrote an angry X user. "The rest of you peasants can sit in the germ-infested filth left behind by the rest of the poor people.""Southwest Airlines has turned into public transit. Dirty and expensive,"another person said, slamming the company.CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR LIFESTYLE NEWSLETTERFacebook users felt differently."Bring your own wipes if you really want a clean seat," said one person. "People need to stop leaving a mess for the flight attendants to clean up."Another Facebook user agreed, saying, "I dont ever trust anyone to clean my seat the way I want anyway. I always carry wipes to wipe everything down right as I sit down so I can try to keep germs at bay."Said yet another Facebook user, "They pick up loose trash and lay the seat belts in the seats. I've sat down plenty of times with snack crumbs all around my feet."CLICK HERE FOR MORE LIFESTYLE STORIESEtiquette expert Jacqueline Whitmore of Florida said every airline passenger should be courteous."Everyone should clean up after themselves, regardless of whether the cleaning crew comes in or not," she told Fox News Digital. "As a passenger, you should pack your manners, and you should clean up your surrounding area."Whitmore, who worked as a flight attendant for years, said it is generally the flight attendants' job to collect garbage throughout the flight, not the responsibility of a cleaning crew.TEST YOURSELF WITH OUR LATEST LIFESTYLE QUIZ"I used to see this all the time," she said. "Passengers would change their baby's diaper on the seat. Then they might leave a dirty diaper on the seat."Ultimately, the potential new cleaning policy from Southwest could affect flight attendants more than passengers."After everybody deplanes the flight, attendants will go through the cabin with one final sweep," Whitmore said."Personally, I'd be more upset if I were a flight attendant, not a passenger."This is the second time in a week Southwest has taken heat from passengers.The airline was slammed after it made a major process change over a month ago. The airline transitioned Jan. 27 from an open seating policy, so passengers now must select their seats or be assigned specific spots.Passengers say they have issues reading the seat numbers, run into snags with the boarding flow and are unable to spread out on the plane."Were always looking for ways to improve our customer experience to continue delivering the seamless and reliable travel journey that customers expect from Southwest," a company spokesperson previously told Fox News Digital.Fox News Digital's Ashley J.
