I don't see this materializing. Rumor probably started by TO's agent trying to get some leverage. I think that there will be a "Save Face" contract adjustment and he will play in Philly.
More interesting I think is Shaun Alexander not playing because of the franchise tag being put on him. I guess he can't live with $6 mil. Can't blame him for wanting a long term deal, though.
Shaun Alexander has some image repairing to do and this isn't a good start. Last year he got all bent out of shape at Holmgren for not getting him the rushing title, when they're last game of the season was on the line and Holmgren's concerns were about winning; not statistics.
