    The Oakland Raiders have filed a grievance seeking nearly $10 million back from recently released quarterback JaMarcus Russell.

    Yahoo! Sports first reported the story Thursday, saying the Raiders are seeking $9.55 million from Russell in what was paid as salary advances for the 2010-12 seasons. The team later confirmed the report.

    "We have filed a grievance against JaMarcus Russell and that's all we're going to say at this time," Raiders general counsel Jeff Birren said in a statement.
