A league source tells us that the Miami Dolphins have given cornerback Reggie Howard a "take a pay cut or take a hike" ultimatum, demanding that he reduce his 2005 salary.
Per the source, Howard has to date refused to alter the terms of his contract.
Howard was signed by the Fins in 2004. He previously played for the Panthers.

HENRY HEADING TO PHILLY
We're hearing that the Philadelphia Eagles are poised to acquire running back Travis Henry from the Bills for a third-round pick.
Barring an unexpected development, the trade will happen on Saturday.
The rumored move is a surprise on the surface, since the Eagles already have running backs Bryant Westbrook and Correll Buckhalter on the roster. But Westbrook will be an unrestricted free agent next year, and Buckhalter is a member of the multiple season-ending knee injury club.
Most presumed that Henry would be shipped to the Cards, but the deal never was consummated.
last but not least.....the one that makes no sense whatsoever:
TITANS, CHARGERS POISED FOR MEGATRADE?
Before sending an e-mail telling us that we're a bunch of dumbarses, remember this:
We're just the messenger.
With that said, there's a rumor out there that the Titans and the Chargers could pull off a stunning draft day trade that would send quarterback Philip Rivers and a fourth-round pick to Tennessee in exchange for the No. 6 overall selection and quarterback Billy Volek.
But the Chargers repeatedly have said they won't be trading Rivers, especially in the wake of paying the back end of his two-tiered signing bonus last month. With that said, the Titans could easily absorb the cap hit, and they then could work out a long-term deal with starter Drew Brees, which would chop down his current cap number of $8 million plus.
And with Steve McNair ready to return for his eleventh NFL season, it doesn't make sense for the Titans to take on Rivers, who'd likely sit on the sidelines for yet another season.
Then again, Rivers is likely to have his butt glued to the bench in San Diego, and the chances of McNair getting injured are much greater than the likelihood of Brees getting busted to the point he can't play.
I definitely like the sound of the first one.....
