Crosby left the Packers after the 2022 season. He played three games with the New York Giants in the 2023 season.
“My 17 seasons in the NFL surpassed all of my childhood hopes and dreams,” Crosby said. “I couldn’t be more grateful that 16 of those years were spent with the Packers. Being drafted in the 6th round of the 2007 draft, I could have never written the script of what my career was going to become."
Across a remarkable 16 seasons with Green Bay, Crosby played in 258 games, kicking 395 field goals on 485 attempts. He won a Super Bowl with the Packers during the 2010 season. He played with both Brett Favre and Aaron Rodgers.
