Raiders rookie RB Dylan Laube has already earned hilarious nickname from teammates

Raiders rookie running back Dylan Laube has become a pretty popular player on the Raiders already. The coaches seem to think very highly of him and his potential to contribute right away. And his teammates are seeing his personality is fitting in as well.

Last week, prior to leaving Southern California where they held the first two weeks of training camp, the team took a trip to the beach. Laube put on a pretty entertaining performance as part of the rookie show, but before that he put on an even better performance by doing a spot on impression of teammate Maxx Crosby.

Crosby got a kick out of it, as did the rest of the Raiders team assembled there. Laube has even earned a pretty awesome nickname.

“I love Cheddar Bob. That’s my guy,” Crosby said, speaking of Laube. “That’s what we call him. That’s Cheddar Bob. From 8-mile, that’s him. He’s a stud. He’s been doing a great job and anytime he picks one at me, he gets a little pass for now.”

For those unfamiliar, this is Cheddar Bob from 8-mile. His part of the scene starts about a minute in (Warning: strong language).

Having spoken with Laube, this nickname is pretty good. And you can see why they call him that. Though, it’s probably not altogether one of those nicknames you want to follow you around forever.
