Holmes Not Happy When it Comes to Amount of Time Training in the Offseason

While other players around the league want more money, or more playing time, wide out Santonio Holmes wants neither, and wants to have some time to relax.  Holmes threw off his practice jersey on Wednesday and complained that the offseason is becoming too much work.

“Honestly, I would prefer they cut down on some of the time,” he said. “There’s no point right now. I want to come into camp 100 percent, I don’t want to come out here and fatigue the body and tear hamstrings, quads, hurt ankles — you know, whatever it may be through the course of trying to finish up these last two, three days.”  Holmes has a valid point, as the teams around the league are pushing players more and more, and then they wonder why players burn out or get hurt.
