The Toronto Argonauts drafted Crawford in the sixth round (40th pick) in the 2012 CFL Draft. After the Argonauts released him, Crawford was on the practice squads of the Saskatchewan Roughriders and Winnipeg Blue Bombers before signing with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in 2013.

Crawford played seven seasons in Hamilton with 24 tackles in 98 games making two Grey Cup appearances. In 2021, he signed with the Stampeders, with three tackles on special teams in 14 games.
