I think it was a classic case of someone hearing the words "McNabb" and "Out" and not the rest of the stuff.

The radio station this morning, 610AM, which is a local sports station, said that Russell had been offered a 3 year contract for 2.5 million a season + incentives, but it is believed he will workout with 2 more teams this week before deciding.

He apparantley had a great workout they said. Zipped the ball well, and moved alot better. He is apparantly in much better shape than when he was with Oakland.

I appreciate the compliment. I always try and post news as i hear it, because for some reason, the small news stations seems to pick up on stuff before the major outlets...i dont know how though.

My gut tells me that the Skins worked him out as a QB, all the while considering if he could play another position..I really feel that he will get a QB job in the NFL, but you can't deny that teams have to be considering him at another position as well due to his massive size and strength..
