Report: JaMarcus a svelte 290 | ProFootballTalk.com

If Raiders quarterback JaMarcus Russell indeed suffers from lethargy addiction, it has not affected Russell's willingness to move his hand from his plate to his mouth.

Adam Schefter of ESPN reports, citing two sources, that Russell recently weighed in at 290 pounds.

Raiders director of squad development Willie Brown recently promised that Russell, the first pick in the 2007 draft, had lost "quite a bit of weight." It's possible that Brown is telling the truth and that Schefter's report is accurate. This would mean that, in the past, Russell had been significantly heavier than his listed weight of 260.

Yeah, I struggle with lethargy addiction to this day but fortunately my love of food, clothing and shelter helps me get up off the couch and deal with it.

With 30-some million garunteed I don't think Russell spends one second a day fretting over food. clothing, or shelter. I'm sure what JaMarcus struggles with are the important worldly things like finding global peace. Or maybe finding the motivation to get off of his lazy ass and try to improve himself as a QB. With such Herculean challenges before him, I'm sure sitting on the couch has become a safe and comfortable place for Russell.

Sources: Oakland Raiders getting set to release JaMarcus Russell - ESPN

The Oakland Raiders are preparing to release quarterback JaMarcus Russell but have to await the final word to release him from owner Al Davis, according to sources.

Russell is on the books for $9.45 million this season, including $3 million of guaranteed money. Since trading for former Washington Redskins quarterback Jason Campbell on Saturday, the Raiders have studied Russell's contract and tried to figure out ways to release him to save the organization some money.
If he gets the $3 million (and sources expect that he will), Russell will have been paid $39 million since coming to the team as a first-round pick in 2007.
The Raiders have a minicamp Friday and it's very possible Russell could be released before then. If Davis doesn't give the go-ahead to release him before Friday, he might attend the minicamp, but the team might not let him practice, fearing that he would suffer an injury and leave the team liable for the $9.45 million in salary.
