I don’t take anything any player says seriously on this issue. This is all negotiation at this point.
On the potential for concessions owners can make that might change his mind:
“I think you’re going to have to do that anyway. Maybe I’m old-school or old-fashion, but offseason is still where it is at, to me. It’s how you become a better player, how you improve your craft. It’s kind of insulting to the profession that you can just show up and just be able to play, especially at a high level. That’s what I have a real concern about. If they are taking away off-the-field offseason workouts (and) organized team activities, I think that is a bad thing.”
