Maxx Crosby and the Las Vegas Raiders were fired up after their win over the Kansas City Chiefs on Christmas Day. While the chances are slim, their playoff hopes are still alive.

Perhaps more importantly, they rallied together under interim head coach Antonio Pierce to take down mighty Patrick Mahomes at Arrowhead Stadium. Santa could not have gifted anything sweeter!

Crosby had just two tackles in the victory. However, his presence in the backfield caused problems for the league’s most-expensive quarterback all afternoon.

Crosby met up with his teammates in the locker room after the game and partook in a joyful celebration set to the poet laureate Keith Cozart, best known as Chief Keef. They joined voice to sing/rap his smash hit ‘I Don’t Like.’

It was lit! Crosby broadcast a portion of the jubilee live on Instagram while smoking a cigar without a shirt.

By nature of the box he checked on his application to Eastern Michigan back in 2015, Crosby was unable to recite all of the lyrics to Mr. Keef’s music. One word in particular is entirely off-limits.

As Crosby celebrated alongside his teammates, he made a very conscious effort to avoid said word.

From the 37-second clip that made its rounds on social media, the 26-year-old defensive end is clear. He made it through the chorus without so much as a quiver of a lip. He was stone cold.

Maxx Crosby was neither the first NFL player nor athlete to broadcast himself on a livestream during a song that included a word he could not say. It happens fairly often, all things considered.

With that being said — Crosby went above and beyond to ensure that everybody knew the word was not said. His lips were locked hilariously tight.

The Raiders celebration was well-deserved and Crosby did a great job!
