[QUOTE="MajicMan, post: 12746, member: 217"] We all knew this was coming, and maybe its already been posted...Sorry if that's the case...But it's official: Rosenhaus says Walker won't report to camp Posted: July 20, 2005 Unless things change in the next few days, Green Bay Packers wide receiver Javon Walker will continue his holdout when training camp begins next week. Advertisement That's according to his agent Drew Rosenhaus, who said as much in an interview for HBO's Real Sports taped last Friday and scheduled to be aired next Tuesday at 9 p.m. on HBO. Here's the exchange between reporter Bernie Goldberg and Rosenhaus: Rosenhaus: "The news on Javon Walker is that we are, right now, we have already decided he is not going to go to training camp." Goldberg: "Hold on. That is news." Rosenhaus: "That is news. I've not said that before. But Javon and I spoke today. And we've made the decision that we're not going to report to training camp. And I can't say when we will report, or if, or when, but he will not be at camp." Goldberg: "Because?" Rosenhaus: "Because the teams refuse to negotiate with us. And he's making about half a million dollars, and he's one of the premier players in the league. I can't let this player go out on the field and jeopardize his career for that kind of money. I just can't fathom it." The transcript of the interview was e-mailed by HBO this morning to Journal Sentinel SportsDay columnist Bob Wolfley. Veterans are scheduled to report to training camp next Wednesday and begin practice next Friday. Walker, who has two years remaining on the five-year deal he signed as a rookie in 2001, is scheduled to make a base salary of $515,000 this season. Last year he made the Pro Bowl for the first time, leading the Packers with 89 receptions for 1,328 yards and 12 touchdowns. Walker already has missed the team's mandatory minicamp this off-season. _________________________________________________ Get ready to sit for a long long time, Javon. Burn'em Pack :twisted: DO WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO. We are not the team to steal on!!! [/QUOTE]
