Las Vegas Raiders star defensive end Maxx Crosby was once a skinny college kid looking to prove himself.
He was once a skinny kid from Lapeer, Mich., who moved to Texas and ended up back in the mitten state, playing at Eastern Michigan University.
Crosby’s college coach, Chris Creighton, could not tell Crosby was going to be a special player from his days on the Eagles’ scout team. He knew Crosby was good but didn’t know he would reach the heights he has in his NFL career. “You never know how someone is going to -- who they are and how they’re going to pan out. Even at the very end, I was like, ‘Yeah, no one can block him,’ but I still probably didn’t have the experience to know.”
