According to the latest report, it sounds like there were more teams involved than we initially thought. Instead of this just being a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportingnews.com\/us\/nfl\/baltimore-ravens\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Baltimore Ravens<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportingnews.com\/us\/nfl\/las-vegas-raiders\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Raiders<\/a> thing, there were other factors at play.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>According to the report, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportingnews.com\/us\/nfl\/dallas-cowboys\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Dallas Cowboys<\/a> team doctor, Dan Cooper, played a role in reviewing Crosby\u2019s knee, and that evaluation may have helped shape how teams approached the situation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCooper is the Cowboys team doctor and is a premiere knee specialist,\u201d she stated. \u201cAs stated by Shan below, Schefter in the clip says \u2018Cooper was one of the doctors who reviewed the images and the Ravens then felt compelled to back out of this trade.\u2019 He has taken on quite a number of tricky knee cases.
