Raiders Issue Statement on JaMarcus Russell

The Oakland Raiders have issued the following statement regarding JaMarcus Russell, their former quarterback and first overall pick of the 2007 NFL Draft, who was arrested on Monday for possession of a controlled substance.

"We did all that we could to intervene and assist with a myriad of issues with JaMarcus Russell. NFL policy restricts our ability to comment publicly at this time. Therefore, those in the media who declare what the Raiders knew or should have known or what the Raiders did or should have done, are reckless, irresponsible and offensive and do a disservice to all concerned, including the public."
