Anquan Boldin has doubts about training camp

Say one thing about Drew Rosenhaus’ disgruntled clients, they are consistent.

Ace Cardinals receiver Anquan Boldin hasn’t made up his mind to attend the Arizona Cardinal’s training camp in July, according to a story appearing on the team Web site azcardinals.com.  

Boldin skipped the Cardinals’ voluntary workouts, but attended the mandatory minicamp. He became dissatisfied with his contract after the Cards extended teammate Larry Fitzgerald’s contract in a four year $40 million deal early this year.

Fitzgerald and Boldin are the most dangerous wide receiver one-two punch in the NFL. The pair combined for 171 receptions for 2262 yards and 19 touchdowns last season. Boldin, however, only started 11 games and Fitzgerald ended the year as the Cardinals’ top receiver.

The Cardinals say they intend to work on Boldin’s contract, but are focused for now on negotiations with linebacker Karlos Dansby.

Boldin’s statement is consistent with other unhappy Drew Rosenhaus clients. All of those players show up for mandatory team events, as Boldin is most likely to do. The azcardinals.com story points out that Boldin is not demanding to be traded.
