Maxx Crosby reveals what impacted Kirk Cousins teammate relationship most

Maxx Crosby said a training-camp clash with Kirk Cousins became his favourite memory of their time as Raiders teammates, despite public speculation that they disliked each other. He said the disagreement was quickly laughed off and that he will always love Cousins, illustrating the quarterback’s lasting personal influence during a brief spell in Las Vegas.

Crosby said he hit Cousins in practice, prompting Cousins to shout at him, but neither player threw a punch. The pair later spent time together at practice and appeared in team TikToks; offensive coordinator Andrew Janocko also praised Cousins’s leadership and character. Cousins played nine games for the 4-5 Raiders, throwing for 2,340 yards, 20 touchdowns and eight interceptions, before heading back to the Vikings, who were 6-2.
