Las Vegas Raiders star Maxx Crosby is certainly a recognizable celebrity. He just didn't realize he was on LeBron James ' radar. As the All-Pro defensive end revealed on his podcast, The Rush , James recognized Crosby at a Lakers game. 'He's like kind of, you know, bending over, catching his breath,' Crosby said. 'He peeks to his left and just makes awkward eye contact, and I just kept looking at him.' It's at this point that James purportedly referenced some trash talk that Crosby directed at Indianapolis Colts quarterback Gardner Minshew during a Week 17 clash last season. Specifically, Crosby called the 6-foot-1 signal caller a 'little-a** boy.' And as Crosby explained to none other than Minshew on the podcast, James apparently saw that footage.

Michael Pittman Jr., a star of the Indianapolis Colts, is on the verge of a new three-year, $70 million contract with the team less than a week after receiving the franchise tag.

An ecstatic Jim Irsay had one simple message for Indianapolis' rivals after snapping their three-game losing streak on Sunday night: 'You're dead.'

Kylen Granson of the Indianapolis Colts was not close to being a household name before this week, but after a personal milestone, it has become a point of much hysteria. Granson had three seasons in the National Football League and was able to stretch across the goal line for six to put the Colts up 27-10 on the Texans with nine seconds remaining in the first half on Sunday. Granson's backup quarterback, Gardner Minshew, took 32 games to get himself into the end zone.

In the first quarter, he was admitted to the locker room for experiments, but the Colts were up 14-7. As backup QB Gardner Minshew was forced to take over, he did not return to the field.

Richardson's agent did not return the call for confirmation within minutes, according to DailyMail.com. The quarterback was one of the few remaining first-round picks who was unsigned with training camps that were still underway or about to begin.
