Patriots | Samuel will not report to team's offseason program
Mon, 12 Mar 2007 06:02:56 -0800

Albert Breer, of the MetroWest Daily News, reports New England Patriots CB Asante Samuel will not report to the team's offseason program without a new deal in place, according to his agent, Alonzo Shavers. Although franchise-tagged free agents are allowed to participate, most players do not in order to protect their financial interests. Samuel is scheduled to earn $7.79 million in 2007 as the team's franchise player.

Just an update.

Didn't that say it's not madatory, like he's just not going there? Or is he going to hold out?

I dont believe its mandatory, but you are supposed to be there as if it was.

With all the money the Pats have been throwing out, I hope they are able to put some deal together for Samuel. I'd hate to see another Branch situation. But its too early to start worrying about it.

Not really, if it does turn into a Branch situation you just trade him to a team with a bad secondary and they might be able to get something good for him, like maybe a first rounder, or a receiver or something.
