Las Vegas Raiders linebacker Robert Spillane says it's an honor to play behind star defensive lineman Maxx Crosby.
For stars in the NFL, one of the greatest things they can do is elevate the play of those around them.
It’s unsurprising that linebacker Robert Spillane joined the Silver and Black last year and had the best season of his career. He had Crosby in front of him, who opened up so many plays. “Playing behind a guy like Maxx is a dream for any off-the-ball linebacker,” Spillane said. “When your D-End can go make 100 tackles a season and play 100 percent of the snaps and just do it the right way, it makes my job so much easier. I tell him, ‘Maxx, you go eat, and we’ll try to clean you up. You’re the best player in the league. Go do what you do, and the guys around you will play off of you.
