Oakland quarterback JaMarcus Russell says that he wasn't fined by the team for being late to meetings and showing up overweight. Analyst Boomer Esiason said on on the air Sunday Russell had been fined "heavily" for the transgressions. "Actually I haven't heard it. That's a first for me. I don't really play into that and I don't have any truth to missing a lot of meetings because I'm the guy that needs to be in there and know what it takes for the guys around, so I don't really play into all of that," Russell told the Contra Costa Times.
