If he can't make it back with this entire group of people helping him, he never will.

Yahoo! Sports has learned that Russell’s mentor through this whole process is former NFL wide receiver Mike Clayton, who like Russell is a LSU product. Over the next couple months, Russell will be training with Brian Martin of TEST Football Academy and TEST West, whose draft products include Joe Flacco and Patrick Peterson among others. In addition, former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jeff Garcia (quarterback technique training), Olympian Ato Boldon (speed training and analysis), Dr. Robert Price of Elite Minds (mental and psychological analysis), former NFL wide receiver Quinn Early (disciplinary work and focus), former New York Giants quarterback Scott Brunner (reading defenses and classroom sessions) and NFL Hall of Fame running back Marshall Faulk (reading defenses) will work as part of the team trying to reclaim the quarterback’s promise.

Wow... Glad to see he's putting in the effort to get back in the league... I just don't feel the Jets is the right place to go, no veteran leadership there's always sideshots in the lockerroom and their fans are ruthless

If someone signs him to the vet minimum with no guaranteed money and everything based on incentives it is a great signing. Maybe he has grown up and you have nothing to lose but a roster spot which going into camp is around 80 spots. If he doesn't show he is reformed cut him right off the bat. What is there to lose??

oh....about 60 or 70 more pounds
