Jarvis Landry hurdles big obstacle toward getting contract extension

Jarvis Landry has been traveling this offseason, most notably to England for an NFL promotional tour, but the fact he was in Davie Monday morning was a big deal.

The Miami Dolphins began their offseason conditioning program on Monday -- just as 23 other teams did -- and so players were expected to be present for the voluntary program. Except, you know, it is voluntary.

And often times players who want new contracts don’t show up on such dates. Reshad Jones passed on the Dolphins’ program to start 2016. Former Dolphins left tackle Branden Albert, traded to the Jacksonville Jaguars in March, did not report to the Jaguars Monday because he wants an extension.
