JaMarcus Russell Reportedly Considering The UFL’s Omaha Nighthawks

As recently as May 11, we’ve heard reports that teams have called about JaMarcus Russell. Well, either they’re not interested anymore or his agent planted those stories because a new report emerged Friday morning that JaMarcus Russell is talking to one team.

The Omaha Nighthawks, according to Pro Football Talk.

A source with knowledge of the situation tells us that the expansion Omaha Nighthawks could be signing Russell, who would team up with running back Ahman Green in the team’s backfield.
There’s still a long way to go before Russell would actually join the team, the internal discussions have begun, and they will continue.

Talk about a fall.

Russell’s business with the NFL isn’t completely over as the Raiders are reportedly trying to recover almost $10 million of his bonus money.
