Jamarcus Russell says he'd play for free for 2nd chance

Would he play for Golden Corral coupons?

I don't think the Department of Labor allows that.

Call it an internship.

Hope he gets another shot. Even if it's just during training camp as the the 4th stringer, he will still have a serviceable arm I'm sure.

If Palko was able to play in the league surely he can earn a practice squad spot.

This. If he really wants to make it happen, he has the talent. He just has to get over being JaFatcus.

Sign him to the practice squad. **** it.

Has he quit using purple draaaaaaaaank?

Sign him as a third stringer.

1) I'm sure every 31 year old ex athlete that washed out of the NFL would say the same thing.

2) God didn't make anything happen. JaMarcus did, and it was ugly.

3) Stop watching watching old Prince videos when you sit at home on your coach. It's 2016.

He's been in the comeback trail, working out with private trainers and trying to loose weight, for more than 2 years. If it was going to happen, it would have happened by now.

Veteran Minimum would prevent that.

Unpaid internship.

I think Russell played too much to have any practice squad eligibility left.

Chiefsplanet... Give a roster spot to Jamarcus Russell

Go play in Canada

His time has come and gone.

How hilarious would it be if a team signed him and just kept him as the water boy?

Funnier than Nun with hepatitis.

Yeah him and Ray rice.

Free is too much. He should have to pay to play.

Well, to be fair, JaMarcus didn't make anything happen either and that's why he's where he's at.

Also, that poor poor coach....RIP.

How far will this guy fall? We have an answer.

He already got paid not to play.. He should just eat a cheeseburger and shut up..

Sippin on some syzurrrp

Raiders fans taught him well.

Hey at least he didn't Sandusky any youth. I'd figure that's always in a Raider's bag.

Wow...that is rock bottom

He was just being resourceful.

He's blown most of the money. He will be broke soon.

These riches-to-rags stories of former athletes always leaves me scratching my head. Seems impossible with all of the financial support and resources that players receive in the modern NFL. Maybe Al Davis is haunting Russell from the great beyond. Payback for the purple drank, blank DVD and poor performance. :hmmm:

FAT

That train left the station over a decade ago.

He was invited back into the NFL in a game tape but he didn’t watch it..

He was a volunteer coach… he got fired from being a volunteer.

That’s bad.

He’s just misunderstood.

This is almost ryan leaf material

I'm kind of surprised he's still alive, tbh.

He should pay back the Raiders, but wait, it's the Raiders **** the Raiders.

Just a reminder, Purple Drank beat the Chiefs TWICE in his career, once in 2008 and once in 2009. He threw for 55 yards in the first win, 109 in the second. He had a career .500 record against us while only completing 34 percent of his passes. One coach who lost to him was Squirmin' Herman, the other was Todd One Finger Salute Haley. Thank God those days are over.

I am not surprised since he is likely broke

Those weren't really the chiefs, though. They were just a placeholder until the real Chiefs arrived.

Sounds like he collected a $74k salary on his own accord.
