Whatever happened with the Chiefs, that's in the past now, and Russell feels confident he'll last with the Bengals.

"I’m back on a team, I’m confident with this, that I’ll be a little longer," Russell said. "I’m confident. We’ll see, but I think the Bengals showed a lot of love in the last couple days, and I feel I can get on the field here. I don’t know when that’s going to be, but I feel if I work hard enough going against these great receivers we have, the great quarterback we have, the way the defensive system is, we need guys."

He sounds like an epic dipshit, IMO.

He wasn't "playing bad" but it was "football decision".

What in the name of **** is that supposed to mean?

Sounds to me like the Chiefs expected their 3rd round pick to be able to show that he was able to play meaningful snaps.....and that didn't happen. He apparently doesn't know why they cut him. Nothing legal. No character issues and it wasn't because he couldn't play.

What a ****ing idiot.
