News and Notes
Jul 24 WR Anquan Boldin was at Wednesday's opening of training camp despite being unhappy with his current contract. Boldin attended the team's mandatory minicamp in May after skipping all voluntary offseason workouts. Boldin's contract runs through 2010 and averages just under $4 million annually, but the team gave fellow receiver Larry Fitzgerald more than $40 million over four years this offseason. Yahoo!

Jul 24 Boldin says the Cardinals lied to him about a new contract and that he has no desire to re-sign with the organization.

Advice: Boldin, a two-time Pro Bowl player and a team captain last season, said Thursday that he was promised a new contract before this season, and has directed his agent to stop negotiations with the team.

Jul 24 Adam Schefter, of the NFL Network, reports Arizona Cardinals WR Anquan Boldin advised his agent, Drew Rosenhaus, that he does not want to re-sign with the Cardinals. Bolden has three years left on his contract. KFFL

Jul 24 Boldin and the Cardinals are still far apart on a contract extension, the Arizona Republic reports.

Recommendation: He reported to training camp on Wednesday and his contract situation shouldn't be a problem this season or next. If he still doesn't have a new deal heading into the 2010 season, he could pressure the Cardinals to trade him, but that's a long ways off. Boldin wants something in the neighborhood of his teammate Larry Fitzgerald's four-year, $40 million deal. Boldin is a similar performer but he is currently making $4 million per season.
