The standstill between the Seahawks and All-Pro safety Earl Thomas has already reached the territory of ugly but it could get even worse: Per the CBA, teams can fine a player $40,000 per day for missing training camp. After five days, the team can tack on an additional 15% of the player’s prorated bonus and 1% more for each day after. So far, Earl Thomas has racked up over $1.2 million in fines including missing the mandatory minicamp. Now, it’s the team’s choice whether or not to collect on the fines but recent Seahawks history certainly says they will: If Kam Chancellor’s holdout from 2015 is any precedent, the Seahawks will be collecting all those fines from Thomas.
