Buccaneers have released DT Albert Haynesworth. That makes it his third team in a year that he’s been let go from. At $7.2 million there was no way he would return at that price.
With new coach Greg Schiano in the mix, its most likley he wasn’t interested in Haynesworth moving forward with the Bucs. Haynesworth failed to make his presence known in the seven games he played with Tampa.
It will be interesting to see if the Eagles will take a look with his buddy Jim Washburn still coaching in Philly. Haynesworths greatest days of football were under Coach Washburn, but at age 31 how much does he have in the tank is the question. The positive for the next team is you can now take a risk for a discounted rate.

Skins in talks with Titans to deal Haynesworth

Currently there are reports from major media outlets that the Washington Redskins and Tennessee Titans are in discussions about trading disgruntled lineman Albert Haynesworth.
The sources have spoke to The AP on condition of anonymity since the talks are confidential.
Washington signed Haynesworth to a contract worth $100 million in 2009, Hayneworth accepted a $21 million bonus in April. Since then It’s been a nonstop battle between coach Mike Shanahan and Haynesworth. Haynesworth came into training camp unhealthy and was not pleased about his nine-figure contract or the 3-4 defensive scheme the Redskins were trying to implement.
It’s being rumored that currently the Titans and Redskins are still apart on the agreement, as the ‘Skins want two draft picks for their over-payed lineman. If Tennessee does follow through with the trade, they would get Hayneworth at a discounted price because the Redskins already paid his hefty roster bonus.
Its seems like Shanahan is definitely thinking about the stability of his locker room and the overall team chemistry with this move. If Haynesworth isn’t traded or just out right benched, it would be pretty tough to swallow paying a guy who makes all that money to sit and do nothing.
