Russell Sits for Second Straight Day w/ Sore Elbow

Russell

Raiders QB JaMarcus Russell was held out of drills again today for the second straight day with a sore elbow. He hit his throwing elbow on the helmet of rookie RB Darren McFadden. The team was encouraged by the fact he did some individual drills, and threw a few light passes. “We wanted to watch him throw, and our trainers watched him,” coach Lane Kiffin said. “They just felt that he was struggling a little bit with it. He wanted to keep going. We pulled him out.” Kiffin went on to say that the injury is not serious and should not hinder him long term. Russell did have an X-Ray on the elbow and it showed no problems.
