Former Oakland Raiders No. 1 draft pick JaMarcus Russell is widely considered to be one of the NFL's most infamous busts. Russell was touted as a future star in the league, but when push come to shove, he fell well short of expectations. In all, Russell lasted three seasons in the NFL.

Speaking on the Pivot Podcast with ex-NFL running back Fred Taylor, the 36-year-old didn't try to dodge the fact that he was a bust. In fact, he hilariously encouraged fans to put some respect on his status as the “biggest” bust in NFL history.

“I'll say my sh** didn't turn out how I wanted it to, or not how they expected it to,” said Russell. “But, if you're going to call me a bust, put the ‘Biggest' on that. That s*** don't bother me.”

It's a rather surprisingly refreshing stance from Russell on his NFL career. Rather than live with regrets about his struggles to adapt to the pros, the former Raiders quarterback is embracing the title of being the biggest bust in NFL history, and encouraging fans to address him as such if they want to call him a bust.

After all, he had one of the worst NFL careers ever from a first-overall pick. Lasting just 31 games with the Raiders, Russell was criticized for his work ethic and inability to stay in shape. He started 25 games in his career, going 7-18 in those matches, with a total of 18 touchdown passes and 23 interceptions.

It's impossible to deny that Russell is a bust, but he's taking things one step further and handing himself arguably the most undesirable title in sports. Say what you want about the former LSU star, but he doesn't seem to be losing any sleep over his disappointing career with the Raiders.
