Raiders’ Maxx Crosby recruits Honey Badger with perfect tweet

Mathieu, of course, has been nicknamed the “Honey Badger” since he was a star at LSU.
The Raiders have already made some big splashes this offseason, highlighted by the blockbuster traded that landed them Davante Adams. They’re clearly determined to keep pace in a loaded AFC West division. Mathieu could be a nice addition for them, especially if he doesn’t cost much.
