Raiders QB JaMarcus Russell Weighs In At 271 For OTAs

According to the San Jose Mercury News, Russell tipped the scales at 271 pounds when he showed up a day late for offseason workouts. The former LSU quarterback is listed on the roster at 260 pounds, but has reportedly slimmed down considerably since last season, Russell has been rumored to weigh nearly 300 pounds in the past. When we were at the Senior Bowl in Russell’s hometown of Mobile, Ala., we spoke to several of his associates from his high school days and the consensus among them was that Russell’s biggest problem was his diet and tendency to not work out on a consistent basis.

He's listed at 260 from last year, and he's 271 from this year? I wouldn't call that slimming down.

Dude, just start giving this guy burgers and ice cream at lunch. Another 15-20 lbs and this dude will be the right size to play tackle.

He came in over 300 last year so I guess this is considered improvement?

10 more pounds or so and he makes a nice undersized Offensive Tackle, but with no mobility whatsoever lol. Maybe he could play end in a 4-3. Iunno but his options are running out. Maybe he should thinking about changing his craft. Sayyyyy a switch to Bullriding? Spainiards can ride him all day long.
