Despite Firing, Boldin Still A No-Show

May 19, 2014 11:35 PM

Anquan Boldin is still a no-show for Arizona's voluntary organized team activities despite having fired agent Drew Rosenhaus. Many hoped that the separation from Rosenhaus would lead to a lighter stance on Boldin's contract demands. "I know from our perspective ... nothing has changed," coach Ken Whisenhunt said. "We're a much better football team with Anquan than we are without him, and we have a high regard for him. So nothing has changed from that perspective."
