The Facts:
Following up on a
previous item. ... Nicks was honored as a hero in the New York area at an event Tuesday night, but missed the team's workout session Wednesday, which was erroneously reported by Yahoo! Sports as a form of protest for contractual reasons. Although Nicks and agent Peter Schaffer have declined to explain why Nicks missed a voluntary offseason training activity session, the agent has strongly denied that the receiver's absence was linked to his contract.

According to Yahoo's Jason Cole, Schaffer indicated in a series of text messages that Nicks takes his place in the community very seriously and wouldn't do anything to jeopardize that reputation. A team source, who had previously suggested to Cole that Nicks may have been unhappy with his contract situation, clarified Thursday morning that he didn't know exactly why Nicks was gone and was making what he felt was an educated guess. ... Still no explanation for the absence though. So we'll undoubtedly be hearing more about it.
