Report: Kam Chancellor could hold out for more money

When the Seattle Seahawks take note of who shows up to training camp this summer, they may find themselves a man short.

Safety Kam Chancellor is one of a multitude of men around the world who finds himself wanting more money for what he does, and he's willing to miss time until he gets it, according to the NFL Network.

Chancellor, 27, still has three seasons remaining on the deal he signed in 2013 and will be due $5.65 million this season to feature on what last year was the league's best defense.

But his not being there would put that side of the football at a certain disadvantage. Earl Thomas is still recouperating from a shoulder injury sustained last season and the operation he had following the Super Bowl. With his absence at the start of this season a distinct possibility, the Seahawks may find themselves having to listen to Chancellor's demands.

So the three-time Pro Bowl selection has some bargaining power on his side. If he holds out any noticeable amount of time, the Seahawks could be compromised at his position as they seek a trip to their third straight Super Bowl.
