NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - People with knowledge of the
negotiations say that the Washington Redskins and the Tennessee
Titans are in discussions about a trade of disgruntled defensive
tackle Albert Haynesworth.
The people spoke to The Associated Press Tuesday on condition of
anonymity because the talks are confidential.
Washington signed Haynesworth to a $100 million contract in 2009
as a free agent, and the tackle accepted a $21 million bonus in
April. It's been a nonstop battle of wills between coach Mike
Shanahan and Haynesworth since then.
The Titans declined to comment, and the Redskins did not
immediately respond to requests for comment.
ESPN first reported the teams were discussing a possible
Haynesworth deal.
