Raiders' Maxx Crosby on NFL Legacy: 'Going to Put F--king Everything I Have into It'

Las Vegas Raiders defensive end Maxx Crosby is "obsessed with getting better," and his insatiable drive continues to fuel his quest to be an elite pass-rusher.

Crosby told ESPN's Paul Gutierrez he's an "addict," a reference to both his passion for football and a nod to the alcoholism for which he sought treatment years ago.

"I went through what I went through, but this is way bigger than that," he said. "For me, it helps that I have that addictive personality, but I've always loved football. Just now, I have a lot more time and a lot more energy and I'm not going out and doing the s--t I used to do.
