According to ESPN.com insider John Clayton, Russell recently weighed himself and, according to a source, he came in at 272 pounds, right around his playing weight. There have been reports Russell was overweight, which is hard to tell with his massive 6-6 frame.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The
initial report -- suggesting Russell is currently tipping the scales at 300 pounds or more -- was met with
vehement denials by unnamed Raider officials. Those same officials also dismissed the notion that Russell hasn't been seen at team headquarters since the season ended. ... We'll remind you it's March. Even if Russell is a little (or even a lot) overweight, there's plenty of time to work his way into shape. That said, it will be interesting to see where things stand when Russell surfaces.
