NSab Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 Clipped from: Indianapolis Star article by Mike Chappell, 6/9/05 Running back Edgerrin James still wants a long-term contract but has no intention of forcing the issue with a holdout. He skipped the team's mandatory three-day minicamp and has not participated in its voluntary summer school. In a recent interview with ESPN.com, James said, "I honor my contract. The season hasn't even started yet. I never said I wasn't going to play. I'm going to play, regardless." In March, the Colts' career rushing leader signed a one-year, $8.1 million contract as a "franchise" player. James can earn an additional $1 million through performance incentives. While he maintained his desire for a long-term contract, he conceded it won't happen before the start of the regular season. "Man, nothing (is) getting done," James said. "It ain't going to happen." James was not asked if he plans to report on time for the start of training camp. Players report to Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology in Terre Haute on July 27.

Pope Flick Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 Good. I'm sitting with the #3 pick and it's probably going to be a Colt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egret Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 Edge never goes to mini-camp. Non-issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
