Westbrook Holdout Angers Reid

"I expect him to be here and I think it's a player's loss if he's not here," Reid said sternly after the Eagles' one-hour practice. "It did surprise me, yeah. Was it the most surprising? I'm not going to answer that, but I was surprised that he wasn't here."

Reid said he did not understand Westbrook's position at all, and he was in no hurry to have a conversation with his top running back, who is protesting his contract situation with the Eagles.

"To be honest with you, I just want Brian here," Reid said. "I don't know exactly what Brian is thinking. I will tell you... that we were very aggressive in our [negotiations]. I think we're being very fair with this thing." [READ]
