After being on the other end of Maxx Crosby's trash talk in 2023, quarterback Gardner Minshew will now be joining forces with him on the Las Vegas Raiders in 2024.
You may remember during the Raiders' matchup with the Indianapolis Colts last season that Crosby was heard on a NFL Films clip calling Minshew, who was then the Colts quarterback, a "little ass boy" on a few occasions.
"Dude, Maxx Crosby is so damn angry," Minshew said on the sideline after a few run-ins with the star pass-rusher, who didn't tally a sack but did get one QB hit. "He just keeps calling everybody 'little ass boy.'"

In honor of that, Minshew hilariously wore a shirt recalling Crosby's infamous trash talk when he arrived at the team facility on Monday for the first day of the offseason program.

Absolutely epic.
Just in case you were wondering, Minshew and Crosby have met since the former signed in free agency during the offseason. Minshew touched on it during his introductory press conference last month.
"Sure enough, I saw him," Minshew said of Crosby, per Bobby Kownack of NFL.com. "He's a big ass boy is what he is. God dang. It's awesome."
