Chargers | Seau Sticking Around? - posted at KFFL (http://nfl.kffl.com)
8:13 PT: According to the Miami Herald, San Diego Chargers LB Junior Seau’s agent, Marvin Demoff, said it’s unlikely a deal will be completed between the Miami Dolphins and San Diego Chargers by Monday or Tuesday. Demoff noted that Seau won’t forgo the Chargers’ $2.7 million payment due on Tuesday, which effectively eliminates a chance for a trade. He also said there’s a chance that Seau may remain with the Chargers and added that with GM John Butler passing away that Seau is not their most pressing issue at this time.

With a Monday deadline approaching, Miami and San Diego officials remain motivated to consummate a trade that would send 12-time Pro Bowl linebacker Junior Seau to the Dolphins, but there are still some elements that could scuttle the deal or at least delay it.

The death of Chargers general manager John Butler on Friday morning, after a year-long battle with lung cancer, certainly has made a speedy resolution of Seau's future much less of an immediate priority for San Diego officials. And a tricky contract with San Diego, one that calls for Seau to be paid a $2.7 million roster bonus by the Chargers on Tuesday, remains a considerable sticking point.

"Everyone seems to want (the trade) to happen," said a league source close to the negotiations. "Whether it does or not, at least by Monday, well, we'll just have to see."...more (http://espn.go.com/nfl/columns/pasquarelli_len/1538322.html)
