Holdouts are for current contracts, the player is saying "I'm not making enough to take the field, you have to pay more for my services", Landry is not in that situation.
If he holds out the year, then this year didn't count, he loses the accrued season, and Miami still owns rights, so groundhogs day again next year.
There's a reason that no player has held out during their rookie deals since the rookie cap, it's because they have zero leverage, no check that, it's actually negative leverage, less than zero. -
sometimes it takes just one time not to show up, to at least make your point. Jones did it last year -
If Landry decided to hold out the reason would be because he wants a long term contract and feels as if he has overproduced for his current contract. Of course there are pros and cons to holding out, for both sides.
Here's a really good article explaining reasons for and against holding out since the 2011 CBA.

Overproduced for his contract? Are you serious? He's making as much as he can, period, rookie wages are capped for the first 4 years, so by virtue of that, it's impossible to "overproduce".
You need leverage to hold out, a player on their rookie deal has less than zero leverage, they have a tiny bit of leverage before they sign that contract, but once they sign it they are stuck until the 4 years are up. -
