Coach Sean Payton: New Orleans Saints not interested in JaMarcus Russell - ESPN: "Saints not interested in RussellEmail Print Comments62 Share22 Retweet30 Associated Press
METAIRIE, La. -- Saints coach Sean Payton says he doesn't think now would be the right time for New Orleans to bring in former LSU star JaMarcus Russell.
Russell was a popular college player in Louisiana, putting together a highlight-filled LSU career that led Oakland to make him the No. 1 overall draft choice of 2007. But Russell struggled with the Raiders, who released him on Thursday after thee seasons.
Payton says it's newsworthy when a top draft choice is released after only three seasons and that players like Russell often get a second chance in the NFL."
