Recently, Earl Thomas skipped two Seahawks practices inside of a week. Unfortunately for Seattle, this could be the start of a pattern. On Wednesday, Thomas missed yet another team practice for non-injury reasons, Ian Rapoport of NFL.com (video link) hears. 
Thomas is in the final year of his contract and is frustrated after unsuccessfully pushing the team for a new deal. Thomas has said that he would like to stay with the Seahawks “if they want him,” but if they don’t want to pay him at the top of the safety market, he would likely prefer a trade elsewhere.
The veteran’s warm feelings towards the Cowboys have been well-documented and were underscored last week when he bowed to the Dallas bench after an interception. There are conflicting reports as to whether the Cowboys are likely to trade for him, though it’s believed that the Chiefs could make a play for Thomas. If Thomas continues to express his frustration by skipping practice, the Seahawks could be motivated to move on from him before the Halloween deadline.
Could the Hawks call it a breech of contract? He willfully admits he is skipping & not injured. Could they bench him and not pay due to skipping practices? I wouldn’t tolerate it from any player. It sets an awful precedent.
I doubt they can, but they can fine him and bench him
They’ve decided to call it a vets rest day…
What a diva.
Just fine him a game check for every missed practice….this will stop real quick
I don’t think they can do a whole game check. They can make it hurt, sure, but I doubt they can do the whole game.
More bad looks from the nfl
Guy is a bum
3 games and 3 interceptions. I think you’re right
This is fake news. Carroll typically gives older vets Wednesday off and stated YESTERDAY this was the case. This story is misleading trash.
The Cowboys don’t need Earl Thomas, and they proved it in Seattle last week.
By losing to Seattle?
No class. Suspend him!
