After experiencing nothing but rough waters the past couple of seasons on the west side of the bay in San Francisco, Michael Crabtree is feeling the love on the east side with the Oakland Raiders.
Head coach Jack Del Rio is impressed with the receiver, who he calls “very professional” and “a great worker.”
Thanks to his professional work ethic, Crabtree has produced on the field for the Raiders in 2015, catching 23 passes for 264 yards (11.5 yard average) and one touchdown.
In addition to Crabtree’s on-field exploits, Del Rio says the veteran is acting as “a mentor” to the team’s young corps of receivers.
