According to SI.com's Don Banks, there are "rumors" that JaMarcus Russell has ballooned to close to 300 pounds since last season ended.
Russell, who coach Lane Kiffin has named the Raiders' starter, had weight issues in college. InsideBayArea.com's Jerry McDonald writes in his blog that no players have actually seen Russell this offseason, so the rumors are hard to confirm. Russell has shown the ability to drop weight quickly. Mar. 9 - 8:01 pm et

This is the reason you have to be careful when investing money on these guys. If this guy is not going to put the work in, then the raiders just blew 60 million dollars.

Brian: Get some sour cream and onion chips with some dip, man, some beef jerky, some peanut butter. Get some Häagen-Dazs ice cream bars, a whole lot, make sure chocolate, gotta have chocolate, man. Some popcorn, red popcorn, graham crackers, graham crackers with marshmallows, the little marshmallows and little chocolate bars and we can make s'mores, man. Also, celery, grape jelly, Cap'n Crunch with the little Crunch berries, pizzas. We need two big pizzas, man, everything on 'em, with water, whole lotta water, and Funyons.
Kenny: That's it?
Thurgood Jenkins: Yeah, get me a box of condoms, and, what was that thing we used to eat back in the day? What was it... oh yeah, pu**y.

He was fat last year too, though he did slim down by camp. I gotta say unless you play defensive tackle, I find it hard to see how someone who is paid to be a full time athlete can let themselves get fat. It's ridiculous.

It is odd you can make it this far in a field were fitness and athleticism are so important, and be a fat ass. It is hard to figure. Thats why I always loved Romo, McCaffery, Smith, guys like that. Guys who put football first, last, and in the middle. Elway was the same way. This team needs to look at Russell and the sad ass Raiders and realize a few 7-9 seasons is how it starts. You either find some hungry players fast or it can get ugly in a hurry. If Russell turns out to be lazy, and Raiders are pinning hopes on him, and they are already rock bottom, that could really end them for a very long time.
They have signed a slew of players, and I now hate Walker along the same lines as Kennisson. I hope we knock his friggin knee into a black hole and he limps into history a whining complaining 2 yr wonder.

With Kwame Harris at LT, Russell will quickly drop that excess weight as he runs for his life. Ha!

It’s much too early to pass judgment on that selection. Russell is a big talent and was a big playmaker in college, but there are disturbing signs. He reported so overweight that a woman reporter suggested he needed a bra.
He just needs "The Bro!". :)

You can't gain that much weight eating Al Davis. Al Davis is like a 100 calorie pack.

Yes, but other people's souls have not a determined a caloric intake value.

At 300 pounds he would be about 30-35 pounds over his listed weight. Not all that much considering his size. I doubt the rumors are true though. IF he is letting himself go it'll be interesting come mid summer.

Its intresting he hasnt put in any work with his fellow teammates this offseason.. look at cutler and what he did with marshall and scheffler this offseason. will it work well see but it shows that he is looking to try and get better... is it a big deal that russell gained all that weight probably not its more important that he is not working out and getting trimmed up anddddd working with his wideouts. ill bt if this is true he hasnt evens at down and watched game tape
