Ex-Raiders QB JaMarcus Russell Pays Over $200K In Property Taxes

Discussion in 'Oakland Raiders' started by BigBlueBruiser, Aug 28, 2011.

  1. NFL bust JaMarcus Russell is still paying for the mess he made in Oakland ... but this time it's a good thing. TMZ has learned ... the #1 overall pick in the 2007 Draft was hit with a $223,180.05 lien by the State of California Tax Board for failing to pay his taxes in 2008 ... when he still played for the Raiders. But this story has a happy ending, because according to court documents filed in Alameda County, CA -- JaMarcus recently paid off his debt the lien has been released. Russell still has ties to Oakland -- where a $2.4 million mansion he owns is still in foreclosure and is set to be auctioned off next month ... unless he decides to pay off the debts and penalties. Russell famously signed a ridiculous contract worth around $60 mil in 2007 -- and then proceeded to only win seven games in three pathetic seasons.
