Well, the answer to the question 'Will Osi Umenyiora Show Up' Friday morning as the New York Giants players report for the beginning of 2011 training is 'no.' Umenyiora, according to a variety of reports, did not show up this morning for physicals at the Timex Performance Center and is not expected for a 1 p.m. ET team meeting. By the way, yes that is 12:55 p.m. on Tom Coughlin time.
Ralph Vacchiano of the Daily News indicated that Umenyiora remains "undecided" regarding a full-blown holdout, and Inside Football's Pat Traina has been told Umenyiora will be at camp "at some point," though not necessarily today.
Umenyiora wants to re-negotiate his contract, which has two seasons remaining.
