Jesus, Jamaal was a 3rd round pick that was INACTIVE for games.
Everyone's glad we didn't jump the gun early on him, eh?
Listen, I'm not claiming Russell is Cornerback Jesus - but to imply he went from the uber-talented kid they drafted in the Top 75 in May to an unrosterable POS in 3 months is ridiculous. There has to be more to the story, otherwise it's a bad look for Dorsey.

I think Matt Miller was right about this kid being a knucklehead who wouldn't shut up and pissed off the leaders of the team.
I wonder if we purposefully put him with the 4th stringers in the preseason to send him a message that he wasn't the badass he was constantly telling everyone he was? Maybe after all that he didn't stop and it got to a point where guys like Peters went to Andy and said "**** this guy".
You're right though. I think there is something more. Maybe he kept going and a serious altercation happened behind closed doors? Who knows.
