In 2010, Crawford was arrested in Plano, Texas, for possession of marijuana. Because it did not involve a drug dealer or a bag of weed, he cut a deal to pay for his arrest with probation and community service in 2011. Crawford's brother in-law is former Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo, who Crawford's sister, Candice, married in 2011. He practices Transcendental Meditation, which he says is like "a natural Xanax".
