FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. - Star receiver Anquan Boldin says the Arizona Cardinals lied to him about a new contract and that he has no desire to re-sign with the organization.

Boldin, a two-time Pro Bowl player and a team captain last season, said he was promised a new contract before this season, and he has directed his agent to stop negotiations with the team.

He has three years left on the four-year, $22.75 million contract extension he signed after the 2005 season that keeps him under contract through 2010. He's making an average of $4 million a year.

GIANTS: Super Bowl hero David Tyree was placed on the physically unable to perform list because of the receiver's lingering problems recovering from surgery on his right knee.

RAIDERS: Star cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha officially signed his $9.765 million franchise player tender offer and joined Oakland in time for its first training camp practice.

Running back LaMont Jordan, however, has been told to stay away from the team. Jordan, set to make $4.7 million this year and $5 million in 2009, has no role with the Raiders after they drafted Darren McFadden.
