For Raiders defensive end Maxx Crosby, there’s no time like the offseason, as he prepares for future battles alongside his teammates. Fresh off an All-Pro season and a new contract, Crosby is an unquestioned leader on the field for Las Vegas.
Crosby is a strong leader off the field, too, openly sharing his story about his struggles with alcohol and his road to recovery. When he signed his four-year contract two years to the day after entering rehab, for example, it was certainly no secret. Rather, it was an added part of the celebration for Crosby and for Raiders fans.
Crosby was also open and insightful in his recent appearance on Addiction Talk, an online recovery talk show with host Joy Sutton. He talked about running in the sun with his Raiders teammates, both old and new, and about the ongoing process of being the best version of himself, on and off the gridiron.
