    Quarterback JaMarcus Russell had his workout with the Bears on Friday, but he isn’t going to be signing with the team.

    That’s the word from Chris Mortensen of ESPN, who reports that the Bears will not be signing any of the three quarterbacks they had in on Friday. Jordan Palmer and Trent Edwards were the other two quarterbacks who worked out in Chicago.

    According to Mortensen, Russell weighed in at 267 pounds on Friday. That’s just about what he weighed when he first entered the league and it’s way down from the 300-plus pounds Russell was carrying when he started his comeback effort. At the very least, that shows Russell’s serious enough about his efforts to resume his professional career to get into the necessary physical condition.

    The same could be said of Russell’s reported willingness to play in Canada if he can’t convince an NFL team to bring him on board. Jeff Garcia, who has been working with Russell, says that going north of the border is something Russell would do if he finds an interested CFL team.

      Can he get back up to 300 and play O-Line? Because surely they can use alot more help there than at the #3 QB Position on the team.

        Russell at 260, 265, IMO, is fine.
        I guess Brock is just scrawny then. I never realised Newton was that big. I thought he was closer to 6'0.

          At first I didn't want him to come back with the way he did the Raiders but he's worked so hard. I hope he's doing it to earn back his reputation and not to get more money for purple drank.

            I guess he can only go up from here, seeing that he is already at the bottom.

              I hope Jamarcus Russell succeeds in the NFL and becomes an elite quarterback.

                  At least he's willing to go to the CFL if it comes down to it unlikes some other guys as of late, could help if he goes there and gets a shot to showcase some skills

                        The only thing I've seen that involved the Ravens and Russell was Brian Martin comparing Joe Flacco's arm to Russell's.

                          There was a report that he'd be trying out with them like he did with Chicago, but it also hasn't really been confirmed.

                            I'll give credit where it's due, he really looks to be making an effort to get back in the league.

                                Well at the very least he is becoming more healthy. He looks as good as ever. Hes still only 27!
