Steely Dan Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 Albert Haynesworth-DL- Redskins Mar. 7 - 11:14 am et The Tennessee Titans continue to seek evidence to support a claim that the Redskins tampered in their signing of Albert Haynesworth just five hours into the free agent signing period. Rumors were rampant that the Redskins had a deal in place before the signing period began, fueling speculation that they started negotiating before they were allowed to by the league. Haynesworth maintains that was not the case, however, and it will be difficult to bring any charges unless the Titans can present some evidence. Source: The Tennessean Well this is interesting.

BillsGuyInMalta Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 They should absolutely pursue this. Worse comes to worse, the case gets rejected by the NFL. Best case scenario is they walk away with some Skins draft picks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steely Dan Posted March 7, 2009 Author Share Posted March 7, 2009 From The Tennessean article linked above. Asked if the Redskins tampered, Haynesworth said: "I don't think so. Yeah, Chad told me he met with the Redskins at the combine, but they were talking about Malcolm and how he could become the next Andre Johnson and stuff like that. "All I know is the Redskins called my agent at 11:04 Nashville time and they started negotiating then. They weren't anywhere close in the first couple of hours and then they got serious. Chad worked the deal then and it worked out.'' Oh Albert you're not helping the Redskins defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nashville is in the Central Time Zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
