Earl Thomas announced he will not attend the Seattle Seahawks' mandatory minicamp "until my contract situation is resolved."

Thomas, who is entering the final year of a four-year, $40 million deal, also said he wants to "have certainty in regards to the upcoming years of my career."

"I also believe that based on my production over the last 8 years that I've earned the right to have this taken care of as soon as possible," Thomas wrote. "I want to have certainty in regards to the upcoming years of my career."
