ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) -- Seven-time Pro Bowl defensive end Michael Strahan failed to report to the New York Giants training camp on Friday, and he is mulling retirement, his agent told the team.

"He is not here," Giants general manager Jerry Reese said after Strahan failed to report with veterans and rookies to the University at Albany. "Last night I talked to his agent (Tony Agnone) and his agent said to me at seven o'clock last night that he is contemplating retirement. That's all I know right now."

Neither Reese nor coach Tom Coughlin has been able to contact Strahan, although the 35-year-old who holds the NFL single-season record for sacks (221/2) left a message for Coughlin around 11:30 p.m. on Thursday night.

Coughlin did not see the message until Friday morning. He left a telephone message for Strahan, but it was not immediately returned.

Michael Strahan is officially a holdout, and his holdout might last forever...

He needs to quit, his ex-wife will just take more of his money.

Exactly!
He is trying to get out of this nasty divorce settlement.

Out of all the players who signed contracts this offseason (F/A, resigns & draftees) I think Mrs. Strahan came out on top.
