Vkings LB Barr wants extension, skips OTAs

Linebacker Anthony Barr of the Minnesota Vikings seems to be in line for a contract extension, but since it hasn't happened yet, he is skipping the team's organized team activities, according to Andrew Krammer of the Minneapolis Star Tribune.

Barr attended Viking head coach Mike Zimmer's football camp over the weekend, but decided to pass on the voluntary team work.

"He came to me and said he wasn't going to be here," Zimmer said Wednesday. "I don't worry about those things. I just know the conversation we had, I'll keep between myself and him."

The 26-year-old Barr is entering the final year of his contract. His $12.306- million base salary is guaranteed, but he has no workout bonuses in his deal, so he is not losing any money.
