Michael Crabtree knows how he feels, and he wants to be very clear about that.
"Oh, I'm excited," he said Thursday. "I'm excited to be here. First day of practice (in August) was exciting — I keep saying 'exciting,' because I'm excited. I had fun today."
He smiled as he said it, and he followed up after interviews to cement it: "Make sure people know I'm excited."
It is not because he is facing his former team in the Ravens. It is simply that he is excited to just take the field.
