The absence of Anquan Boldin on the first day of the Cardinals' organized team activities on Tuesday has been a cause for concern in Tempe, according to The Arizona Republic.
"I would be less than honest if I said I wasn't disappointed that Anquan and Darnell weren't here," Cardinals head coach Ken Whisenhunt said. "But once again, these are voluntary."
Boldin is rumored to be upset over the fact that teammate Larry Fitzgerald is getting paid significantly more than him this season.

New Deal For Kurt Warner?
Kurt Warner indicated to the media that nothing is imminent in talks with the Cardinals regarding a new contract.
Warner's current deal is up following the coming season, and he has indicated he wants to play two more years beyond this.
The Cardinals seem agreeable, though they'd probably want to lower his salary for the '08 season.

Anquan Boldin was present for the Cardinals' first mandatory off-season event on Friday, according to the Arizona Republic.
Darnell Dockett and Karlos Dansby were reportedly a part of the workouts, as well.
Boldin was rumored to be upset with his current contract situation because fellow receiver Larry Fitzgerald is getting paid a significant amount more for his services.
