Mini bio
How it started.
Crosby grew up in Lapeer, Michigan, before his family moved to Colleyville, Texas. Football helped him settle in. Eastern Michigan gave him his only college offer after he attended one of its camps. He went on to record 20 sacks for the Eagles.
The breakout.
The Raiders drafted him in the fourth round in 2019. That November, he recorded four sacks against Cincinnati, a franchise rookie record. He finished his first season with 10 sacks. Pro Bowl selections followed, along with AP second-team All-Pro honors for the 2021 and 2023 seasons.
Beyond Sundays.
On The Rush, Crosby shares football conversations and a look behind the season with Brogan Roback and Darien Terrell. His story also includes recovery: he has spoken publicly about becoming sober on March 11, 2020. His foundation supports youth substance abuse intervention, health and wellness, and animal welfare.
