Antoine Winfield Fails to Show for Minicamp

Judd Zulgad and Kevin Seifert are both reporting (Seifert via Facebook) that Antoine Winfield was a no-show for today’s mandatory minicamp session.  There is no official word on why Antoine is not there, but we all know Antoine was trying to negotiate a contract extension this off-season and those talks broke down.  For what it’s worth, in a recent interview, Erin Henderson said Antoine intended showing up for the minicamp, which is, as I said before, mandatory.  Guess Erin’s not a great source.  Of course, it’s always possible Antoine’s absence had nothing to do with his contract, and it was excused.  And it’s also possible that I will look out my window and see a pig winging by. The off-season was so dull until Antoine decided to hold out.  Good thing we now have something to discuss.
