Here are some key quotes from the interview that may interest 49ers fans.
"A lot of people don't know that the Niners offered me a contract, I just didn't take it," Crabtree said. "I wanted a fresh start. It was more money too — the Niners offered me more money than anybody did — but business is business and I wanted to come to a team that really wanted and needed me."
