TMZ Sports reported witnesses said Crawford "bull rushed his way through two cops and aggressively put his hands on two officers" while they were trying to arrest someone.

Crawford, 29, was not arrested.

A police report indicates security and separate individuals were both aggressors in the incident but the individuals did not want to press charges because they are from Canada.

Crawford is from Windsor, Ontario.

Crawford has been with the Cowboys since they drafted him in the third round in 2012.

He is a respected Cowboys team captain and  has been involved in many charity and community service events.
