Crabtree on Raiders extension: 'It's neat to know you're wanted'

ALAMEDA –Michael Crabtree doesn’t talk to the media much, but a new four-year contract extension prompted a rare exchange with the veteran Raiders receiver.

He wasn’t but a few minutes into Thursday’s Q+A when defensive end Justin Tuck chimed in with an inquiry.

“Can I get a loan?” Tuck said from afar, his voice rising above crowd. “I’ll take check or money order. What about cash? PayPal? I’ll even take an IOU.”

Not that Tuck needs the money. He’s made some in his day. Crabtree, especially now, has money to spend.

He signed a four year deal worth up to $35 million which, according to NFL Network, includes $11 million in 2016 and $18 million in total by 2017.
