After three years of leading the Las Vegas Raiders, captain Maxx Crosby has become a Pro Bowler. The ride to greatness hasn’t been easy for the 24-year-old from Eastern Michigan. He had a rough climb to the top. Being a Pro Bowler means a lot to any NFL player, but it is very special to Crosby. After learning that he won the honor, the defensive end became very emotional. MAXX CROSBY TALKS ABOUT HIS PRO BOWL NOD “It brought back memories,” said the Raiders captain with tears in his eyes. “I’m going to get emotional. I was in rehab almost two years ago, and now I’m in a Pro Bowl. It’s just a blessing, man. I show up, and I try to be the best teammate every day and show my guys that I care. That s*it just hit home. It was special.” Crosby is blessed for even being able to play. Being in the Pro Bowl is an honor for the defensive end. “It makes my family proud, my girl. Everybody around me is calling, blowing up my phone. I’m crying like a baby because I know I’ve worked so hard, and it’s starting to pay off.” The support of his family and everyone around him has been very significant to Maxx. He has made everyone proud.

I want to kill him sometimes. He wants to kill me, but he just wants to see the best for me. He knows what I want. I want to be the best in the league, and he pushes me to be that guy every day.” MAXX CROSBY’S INSPIRATIONAL STORY Crosby was drafted by (then) Oakland Raiders in the 2019 NFL draft. He was the 106th overall pick in the fourth round. He made his debut against the Denver Broncos in Week 1. Maxx made six tackles in his first match. In March 2020, Maxx Crosby was checked into rehab for alcohol abuse. He was at the lowest point of his life. Then he bounced back stronger than ever. Crosby fought his demons and came out on top. He became one of the best defensive players in the league. This season, he recorded 25 quarterback hits, 39 tackles, and 5.0 sacks. Maxx deserves the Pro Bowl. Playoffs?

<h2 style="text-align: center">Las Vegas Raiders 2022: News, Schedule, Roster, Score, Injury Report</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">The Raiders franchise was originally based in Oakland, California and they played their first season as charter members of the AFL in 1960. During the 19700 AFL-NFL merger, the Raiders moved to into the NFL. Moreover, from the 1982 season onwards all the way through the 1994 season, the club had moved out of Oakland and relocated to Los Angeles.</p>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-485902 size-full" src="https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/raiders.jpg" alt="" width="1512" height="850" />
<p style="text-align: center">However, this would prove to be yet another stop as the NFL team owners decided in March 2017 to approve the Raiders’ application to relocate to Las Vegas. What’s more, this move came in through nearly unanimous approval. On January 22, 2020, the Raiders official picked up the mantle of the Las Vegas Raiders.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">Although the initial years were fraught with hardships, the entry of Al Davis and his continued attempts at improvement saw things turn around in 1967. The team went on the win it’s first and only AFL championship, however; they were soundly dispatched by the Green Bay Packers at Super Bowl II. The franchise currently clocks in with 15 division titles, 4 AFC championships, 1 AFL championship (1967), and 3 Super Bowl Chips: XI, XV, XVII in 1976, 1980, and 1983 respectively.</p>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-485904 size-full" src="https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/raid.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="600" />
<p style="text-align: center">The Las Vegas Raiders finished off the 2020 season with the placement of second in the AFC West with an 8-8 record. They were looking to make their run into the playoffs for the first time since 2016.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center">Logo</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">The general outline of the logo saw a pirate wearing a football helmet with an eye patch with two white swords in black trim placed crisscross. The original logo placed the aforementioned setting behind a gold football background. However, during the transition from being the Oakland Raiders to the Los Angeles Raiders, the franchise scrapped the black and gold scheme.</p>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-485908 size-full" src="https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/aida.jpg" alt="" width="1280" height="469" />
<p style="text-align: center">A sleeker silver and black look was selected and has remained the standard for the current iteration of the Las Vegas Raiders. The aforementioned symbolism of the eye-patch wearing pirate was now permanently placed on a black shield. The Las Vegas Raiders added a black outline to the previous design, however, everything else remained virtually identical.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center">Owner achievements</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">Mark M Davis is the principal owner and managing general manager of the Las Vegas Raiders. As of late 2015, Davis has an estimated net worth coming in at $500 million making him a true powerhouse within the NFL owners circle. Chiefly, he inherited the team after the death of his father Al Davis in 2011.</p>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-485910 size-full" src="https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/davis-3-2.jpg" alt="" width="1920" height="1085" />
<p style="text-align: center">Prior to owning the team, Davis was involved in the retail part of the business and helped in the organization of Image stores. Moreover, Davis and his mother Carol own 47 percent share of the franchise and this is contractually structured to give them controlling interest. Al Davis has continued day-to-day ownership of the team.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center">Las Vegas Raiders 2022 Sponsors</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">Modelo came in as the official Cerveza of the Las Vegas Raiders and the brand new Allegiant Stadium through the deal signed by Constellation Brands. Moreover, the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians also announced a partnership with the Vegas-based outfit. Desert Ford Dealers inked a deal with the Las Vegas Raiders to become the official vehicle of the Raider Nation.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">Some other signings include Aristocrat Technologies as well as Matsing, the leading manufacturer of high-capacity lens antennas. Through the tie-up with MatSing, Allegiant Stadium’s seating and the Modelo tailgate Zone will provide fans with 4G and 5G broadband mobile coverage once COVID-19 restrictions are lifted.</p>
