All-Pro safety Earl Thomas won't report to Seattle Seahawks training camp Wednesday amid a contract dispute, a source told NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

The 29-year-old free safety is scheduled to enter the 2018 season on the final year of his contract, one that will pay him $8.5 million for the campaign.

Last week, he took to Instagram to ask for an extension or a trade. NBC Sports Radio's Newy Scruggs reported Tuesday that Thomas spoke with Mark Davis about his desire to play with the Oakland Raiders. Scruggs also said the safety is willing to play for the Dallas Cowboys.

Thomas has spent his entire eight-year career with Seattle, but the Legion of Boom is in a current state of flux. Venerable corner Richard Sherman signed with the rival San Francisco 49ers this offseason, and Kam Chancellor, Thomas' partner in the secondary, retired due to a neck injury.
