Houston Texans linebacker DeMeco Ryans has been avoiding the teams off-season conditioning program, but will report for the team voluntary workouts which begin Monday.
Ryans, who has one-year remaining on his contract has snubbed the team thus far, because he is upset that a long-term contract extension has not been reached yet.
"He's coming to town and he is going to be there Monday and is ready to play football in 2009," said Ryans' agent Ben Dogra in an interview with FOX 26 Sports in Houston.
Dogra, who was recently hired by Ryans, said he has yet to discuss his client's contractual situation with the Texans.
"I have not spoken to the Texans yet. They are in draft meetings right now. I will speak with (general manager) Rick Smith at the appropriate time."
The former 2nd round choice and Defensive Rookie of the Year in 2006 has definately earned an extension, in 3 seasons he has put up 396 tackles, 6.5 sacks along with 2 interceptions.
