The Facts:
Off-season research by his agent, John Hamilton, showed Kennison to have the 45th-highest 2006 salary among the NFL's 64 starting wide receivers. Now, Kennison's contract isn't as attractive and this week he decided to do something about it. Kennison said he would report to training camp with the Chiefs in time for the first practice Friday. But he also indicated he might leave camp at some point if the Chiefs don't either give him a new contract with a raise or release him.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
"I will go to camp and work as hard as I've been working," he told the Star. "I won't have any bitter or sour attitudes in camp. … But when I signed my last contract with the Chiefs, I think we all know that if I hadn't performed to expectations, I wouldn't be here anymore. ..." And now he wants his. Kennison does have a point -- and perhaps some leverage as the only established wideout on a roster full of unproven talent.
