The New York Jets reported for training camp with high hopes -- and without perhaps their best player.

All-Pro cornerback Darrelle Revis is holding out while locked in a contract dispute with the team. And there's no telling how long he might stay away.

"Darrelle and his family were extremely deliberate with the decision-making process," Revis' agent, Neil Schwartz, told The Associated Press on Sunday. "Obviously his actions speak far louder than words."

Revis didn't show for a conditioning test Sunday morning at the Jets' training facility in Florham Park, N.J., and officially became a holdout when he missed the team's first meeting at 5:30 p.m. in Cortland.

Not good news for a team with its sights set on a Super Bowl.

Schwartz and agent Jon Feinsod said both sides worked until the last minute to get something done. General manager Mike Tannenbaum said the Jets offered long-term and short-term deals, and a face-to-face meeting, and all three were denied.

"The lines of communication are open, and we remain committed to finding a solution that makes sense for him and makes sense for us," Tannenbaum said. "The two things that we've all agreed upon is that Darrelle has outplayed his contract and it needed to be addressed, and he has three years to go on his contract."

Said quarterback Mark Sanchez: "Revis is doing what he feels he needs to do, and the team is going to do what they feel they need to do.baseball jerseys http://nflwholesalejerseys.com/ than that, I don't know too many details about it. We'd love to get him back as soon as possible."Other

Revis is set to make $1 million in the fourth year of his six-year rookie deal, making him one of the lowest-paid defensive backs on the team this season. He wants to be the NFL's highest-paid cornerback, a distinction that belongs to Oakland's Nnamdi Asomugha, who signed a three-year, $45.3 million extension last offseason.

Tannenbaum, saying he's "an eternal optimist," added that the main disagreement between the sides is in total compensation.

"That is the threshold issue we have," he said.

"He's a great player, the best corner I've ever been around," coach Rex Ryan said. "So, certainly, I'm disappointed. I really thought, in my heart, he would be signed by now and we wouldn't be having these conversations."

Revis said in May that both Tannenbaum and Ryan told him they believe he should be the league's highest-paid cornerback. After all, Revis was coming off a season in which he routinely handled opponents' top receivers and finished second in NFL Defensive Player of the Year voting. Revis also said the Jets promised him that his contract situation would be taken care of by training camp.
