This Shawn Andrews hold out has everyone baffled. And yesterday in Peter King' story about his annual journey to Lehigh, he wrote that he had been assured from the EAGLES this protest from Andrews was not about money. So what could it be?
It can only be two issues -- either he wants to retire and hates football or he is unhappy with his contract. If he were sick or had an emotional problem at home, the Eagles would be much more sympathetic to his needs. So you can rule out those reasons. The Eagles are acting as if the player has told them he wants to quit, but needs more time to make the final decision. Jon Runyan's call for Andrews to just show up and be a teammate is a clear indication Runyan thinks the guy is quitting on him.
During my time with the Raiders we went through this with Steve Wisniewski and Napoleon Kaufman. The Andrews situation reminds me of those times and it's the only reason that makes sense to me. What do you think?
