The Seattle Seahawks and Pro Bowl safety Kam Chancellor have been playing hardball with each other all off-season. Unfortunately, the regular season is just days away and the two sides have been unable to reach an agreement.
Chancellor has been holding out the entire time and now he’s going to miss an actual game that means something.
With the practice week starting, today was the deadline for Kam Chancellor to show up to play. He’s still home. Dion Bailey takes his spot

Head coach Pete Carroll is well aware of the ramifications.

For each game Chancellor doesn’t show up for, he’ll miss out on $267,467.
