Darrelle Revis doesn’t know if he’ll hold out from training camp

[polamalubeast]

Two years after holding out of training camp before getting a new contract, Jets cornerback Darrelle Revis isn’t sure if he’s going to do it again.

Revis was asked today if he will definitely report to training camp on Day One, and he answered, “I don’t know,” according to Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News.

Another Revis holdout has been the subject of speculation since almost the very day he signed his current four-year contract. In September of 2010 we noted thatanother holdout could be coming after the first two seasons of that deal. Now those first two seasons are up.

The four-year contract Revis signed two years ago paid him $32.5 million in the first two years, but he’s set to make only (only?) $13.5 million over the next two years. At the time he signed that deal, he made clear that he didn’t think a player of his stature should settle for $6.75 million a year, which is what he’ll average in 2012 and 2013.

Good. We play them early in the season. Sit out until then!

In retrospect, I'm glad the Steelers didn't draft this guy. He's done nothing but bitch about his salary since he's been in the league.

Remember, we have our own greedy diva Mike Wallace. He has said way too much this offseason.

You got it on the front end asshole that's why you're 'only' going to get 6.75M for the next two years!

Thinking the same...but boy, I think I'd take the bitch session every year...he's worth it...lol.

How much of this stems from how that whole team is run? Sure he's a greedy bitch, but if he worked for a team first organization for all of his years he might have learned better. He'll end up playing all his years for them get paid plenty and retire without rings.

He'll end up playing all his years for them get paid plenty and retire without rings, and be one of those aloof angry ex-players with a chip on his shoulder always claiming everyone was against him.

Had to fix for improved accuracy.
