Report: Boldin to fire super-agent Rosenhaus

Anquan Boldin has made it clear he wants to play for a new NFL team. Now he apparently wants a new agent as well.

The Cardinals' star wide receiver has informed the Arizona Cardinals and the NFL Players Association of his intention to fire super-agent Drew Rosenhaus, according to a report Tuesday on ESPN.com. Rosenhaus represents more NFL players than any other agent, according to the report.

"Regarding Anquan Boldin, let me say that I have great respect for him," Rosenhaus told the Web site in a statement. "I'm hopeful we can work this out and he can return to the Rosenhaus Sports family in the near future."

Boldin has reached out to other agents in recent weeks, according to the report, which cited an unnamed source. Specifically, Boldin contacted Kennard McGuire, CAA agents Tom Condon and Ben Dogra, and two of teammate Larry Fitzgerald's agents, Eugene Parker and Paul Lawrence.

Boldin first asked to be traded last offseason when the Cardinals refused to give him a contract extension. After the team failed to move him, Boldin caught 89 passes for 1,038 yards and 11 touchdowns in the 2008 season, earning him his third Pro Bowl selection.

Boldin has renewed his request for a trade this offseason, and last month Cardinals head coach Ken Whisenhunt confirmed that teams had been contacting Arizona about Boldin's availability.
