JaMarcus Russell entered training camp as the No. 1 quarterback for the Raiders. AP NFL Team Page OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) -- Oakland Raiders quarterback JaMarcus Russell was held out of all team drills during the evening practice Tuesday after banging his elbow off the helmet of teammate Darren McFadden earlier in the day. Russell, Oakland's starter this season after spending most of last season on the sidelines, complained of stiffness in his elbow after warming up and making a few throws early during the night session. The No. 1 overall draft pick in 2007 wore a thick bag of ice on his right elbow at one point. He watched as Andrew Walter and Marques Tuiasosopo split the reps with the Raiders' first-team offense. "We didn't foresee it being an issue because when we checked him out after (the morning) practice he was fine," Oakland coach Lane Kiffin said. "But he came out and warmed up, threw the ball and it just stiffened up a little bit on him. So we erred on the side of safety and pulled him out at that point. "If we were playing a game he could have very easily played, so I don't foresee it being an issue at all." Kiffin said he expects Russell to be able to practice when the Raiders hold an afternoon workout Wednesday. This is Russell's first training camp. He missed Oakland's entire camp and the preseason a year ago while he was locked in contract negotiations with the team. He played in three games as a rookie, starting the season finale against San Diego.
Manning hit his arm on Tarik Glenn's helmet in a championship game in 2007, and he didn't sit out with ice on it. Fuckin Pussy
That the hungry hippo has a pair. Did he elbow drop his new RB while he had a helmet on? I'd expect that from an Al Davis team.
Dude, I have slammed my funny bone into helmets numerous times and for more than an hour wasn't even able to close my hand.
Yea you were a baseball/ basketball guy. More like equipment manager. Hey at least you were part of a team.
Its embarrassing that I'm under your skin that badly. You make me look good. Thank You. Loser. EDIT: the thumbnail, I can't see shit. Learn how to use the computer Jeaux, instead of mashing the keys.
Didn't see you address your Baseball/'Basketball exploits. LMao You try to talk a good game but you clearly don't know what your talking about. ( well at least you admitted football was never your thing- PS it was obvious.) Hey anytime you want to show off your skills as basedball or basketball player email me and I will gladly give you a lesson.
We may disagree on teams, but that was a funny post sir. Well done. Jeaux, I was captain of a lot of the teams. I'm 6'3 played power foward and 1st base, and was known as a wall at 1st for my ability to pick it out of the dirt. I shouldn't even justify my athleticism to you, as you spend your time on a Jets board when you are a Raider Fan. You're still a fake loser and I am under your skin. You hate me, every single one of my posts you MUST respond to. Its so personal to you and I am the puppeteer laughing and orchestrating the dance. Dance for me puppet. Email you to play you?? What the fuck is wrong with you? You make me feel better about myself.
Your the captaiin of the special olympics. Only thing you were known for was picking your nose, and your wedgie in homeroom class. You try and come on this board talking football( you admit it was never your thing) and Im sorry but I take my football talk serious. Your fake and should try and find a baseball board to share your knowledge. Obviously you have no clue what your talking about with football.
take it for what its worth. California has the highest % of retarded homer, dont know jack shit fans then any other state. Raider fans are the worst of the bunch. Ive never talked to such clueless souls in my life. Just saying, even though its apparent the puppet strings are clearly attached to Jeaux's "area"
Its so cute how you say what you do, and then the evidence on you not knowing football is rampant. I'm not the only one telling you you're a fucking moron. But you are a fake troll, this isn't your real personality, and this fake persona is fine practice to pick apart. I will continue to deal with you as long as you keep a smile on my face and my self esteem high. So far you're doing a pretty good job. Raiders still suck. As Abyz posted before: 4-12 5-11 4-12 2-14 4-12
Come on, fans are fans. The Jets have as many clueless "homer" fans as anybody. Or is this not the message board where I've read classics such as "I'd take Pennington over Eli Manning," "Vilma is as good as Ray Lewis," or even, "I'd rather have Brad Smith than JaMarcus Russell" (one of my favorites, might have to make it my sig some day).
