JaMarcus Russell - QB - Oakland Raiders
Nov. 15, 2009 - 6:50 PM ET
Coach Tom Cable benched JaMarcus Russell in favor of Bruce Gradkowski in the third quarter of Sunday's game against the Chiefs.
Russell completed just 8-of-24 passes for 64 yards in this lackluster performance. He went to the sideline and acted like he didn't care after missing a handful of throws and having at least nine balls dropped by his receivers. Gradkowski came in and completed a one-yard pass en route to a three-and-out and the Oakland crowd roared in appreciation.
