Mobile County Sheriff's Office Spokesperson, stated he was arrested for codeine syrup. A July 20 court date is pending.
So you ask " What's that?" Well some poeple may know it better as "purple drank". It is a banned substance in the NFL, and most people will use the substance as a recreational drug in an effort to get "high". Typically people will mix it with a beverage such as sprite, and this is called "sip-sip", and it is a felony to have it with out a perscription.
Russell grew up in Mobile, Alabama playing high school football and Quarterback for LSU.
He was the overall #1 draft pick of the Oakland Raiders in 2007. Recently parting ways with the Raiders, Russell has heard talk of interest from the New York Jets behind starter Quarterback Mark Sanchez.
