Former LSU quarterback JaMarcus Russell says he wants to make a comeback in the NFL, six years after being released by the Raiders.

In an interview with Sports Illustrated Films, Russell said he would do anything to get another chance, including working for free.

"I'll be the waterboy an work my way onto the scout team. It doesn't matter. I'll play for free."

Last year, Russell wrote to Cowboys owner Jerry Jones in hopes of getting another chance at the league.

"I am willing to lead the scout team for free for one year just to get experience in your system, he wrote "After that time, if you see fit to allow me to stay with the Cowboys organization, I would be eternally grateful."
