Kam Chancellor holdout lingers on

RENTON, Wash. – Wednesday marked the 20th day for the holdout of Seahawks strong safety Kam Chancellor.

For the first time there was an on-the-record comment from Chancellor’s side – and it doesn’t appear things will change soon.

In a tweet from ESPN’s Josina Anderson, Chancellor’s agent, Alvin Keels, was reported as saying: “Nothing has changed. He will not report without his contract being addressed this season. The team and I have been in contact, but we haven’t been able to agree on any compromise.”

That jibes with what Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said this week. Asked Monday if there was any update on Chancellor, Carroll said: “Our conversations continue. Nothing has changed, but we’re in communication regularly.”
