The Facts:
James plans to report to training camp today, but he doesn't expect to accompany the Colts to Tokyo for their Aug. 6 preseason game with the Falcons. In a Sports Illustrated story that will hit newsstands Thursday, James confirmed he will be on time for camp -- players are required to report by 2 p.m. today -- but added, "The closest I'm going to get to Tokyo is Benihana."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
James does not like traveling by airplane. His disdain for playing in preseason games also is well-documented. ... There was no immediate reaction from the team regarding James' intention to avoid the long flight to Tokyo, but we're not as worried about that game as we are his presence in camp.
