A bad offseason got worse for JaMarcus Russell on Monday when the former Oakland Raiders QB was arrested and alleged to have possessed a controlled substance.

Police in Mobile County, Alabama, alleged that Russell was in possession of codeine, a prescription painkiller. Sheriff's spokesperson Lori Myles told the AP that Russell was arrested as part of an undercover investigation.
