Maxx Crosby has never been shy about speaking his mind and when it comes to his association with the President of the United States, Crosby has been no less candid this week.
Making rounds at the Super Bowl media events in New Orleans on Thursday, Crosby was asked what he thought about Donald Trump attending the game.
Crosby shared his thoughts on Trump and talked about his few interactions with the newly elected President.
“He’s a huge sports fan, in general. He’s like one of us,” Crosby said of President Trump on Thursday. “That’s just his personality, so having a guy like that leading in incredible… He’s out with the people which is awesome to see.”
“We’re all human beings at the end of the day. Regardless of position [or] what you’ve been through. Life is life. Everybody has things that you go through, everyone has adversity, everyone has mistakes, but it’s about where your feet are at, and I think he’s done an incredible job with that. My relationship with him, I’ve been with him multiple times. He’s been incredible. I’m not the person that likes to judge by what other people say. I like to make my own judgments myself and he’s treated me incredible every time I’ve been with him.”
In football news around Crosby this week, it sounds like he is going to be wearing Silver & Black for now and years to come.
Crosby addressed trade rumors on Thursday, and it sounds like he is sold on the direction the team is going under Tom Brady, John Spytek and Pete Carroll.
“I’ve had doubts in the past,” Crosby told Mike Florio and Chris Simms on PFT Live. “I feel like this past year was the hardest part of my career. Battling through injury the whole year, struggling, losing 10 games in a row. Up here, it makes you start questioning a lot of things.”
Crosby said he has been involved in conversations with Tom Brady, John Spytek and Pete Carroll in recent weeks, and has been encouraged by the new leadership within the organization.
”It seems as if we’re going in the right direction,” Crosby said. “I can’t say that it is, but this probably the most optimistic I’ve been in recent years.”

Maxx your CTE has already got your brain scrambled, a mind is a terrible thing to waste!!! No respect for the ignorant!!!
I love Maxx, but Donald Trump is a sure fire loon! Seems to me the only flaw Maxx has is Trump!!! !!!
Watch what you wish for Max. Someone who ruffles people the wrong way will get his ultimate wish. You may wind up being traded to Cleveland where you will never win anything. Maybe you can put all of your energy into trying to get double digit sacks next year. Put some duct tape on it please.
The Orange Obese Walrus(aka El Gordo Trumpo) is a disgrace. Everything built by Al Davis was predicated finding and playing the best, which included diversity, equity, and inclusion. The Raiders were the first team to draft an African American QB, the first team to sign players from the HBCUs. The first team to hire an African American head coach, the first to hire a Latino head coach, the first to have a woman running the franchise. El Gordo Trumpo is a racist, sexist and has no place anywhere near the Raiders organization. Thus, Maxx has a lot of explaining to do to his teammates and Raider Nation.
You’re calling Trump a racist cuz you’re a low IQ fugging moron. Every democrat ran place is a 3rd world crap hole. I’d STFU if I was you
People need to separate sports from politics, personal relationships from political views. Crosby could have a relationship with Trump and still disagree with some of his politics. At the end of the day, that’s his personal business and he should not be judged for it. Crosby has no explaining to do to his teammates nor the public. Democrats who judge him for for his friendship with Trump are as bad as the people they criticize.
