Raiders QB JaMarcus Russell Reports To Offseason Program

There has been a JaMarcus Russell sighting, and it's not in Las Vegas or Arizona, the former top overall pick is taking part in the Oakland Raiders' offseason conditioning program, according to the Oakland Tribune. The former LSU quarterback had drawn criticism for not showing up on the first day of the workouts, according to the report, Russell won't be made available to the media, so, they probably won't be able to confirm Raiders staffer Willie Brown's recent comments that Russell has lost a lot of weight. Brown also said that Russell was absent from the first day because he was finishing the purchase of a house in Alabama. "You'll be surprised when you see him," Brown said during a Comcast SportsNet interview. "It's quite a bit of weight that he's lost… . I don't want to pin it down and say how much he lost but it will be a significant difference when you see him compared to last year. The most important thing is he's getting in shape. Not only losing weight, but getting in shape. "He's watching his diet, he has special meals brought in that he's eating, and we have one of the Raiders, a former player there with him to monitor him and make sure things are going fine. The weight thing, he'll get it down."
