Hold outs for a mini camp are different than for training camp though. Mini camp you just show up, do some light exercise on the side, and go home. Still plenty of time before training camp to get deals done.
Training camp they want you to actually practice and thats when you can get hurt. So you hold out to avoid that possibility. Plus its closer to deal time so it makes getting something done soon more important. Time to flex your leverage.
Not showing up for mandatory mini camp seems like a crap way to be part of a team. At least put in the effort to show up. Like I said, both Bosa and Deebo showed up and both will probably get record or near record deals before they actually play again.
Bet hey, at least DK didn't go nuclear and ask for a trade. Yet!
