After the Washington Redskins defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth said on the first day of team’s offseason workout program that he would not volunteer to take part in the program, new head coach Mike Shanahan made it clear that he did not like the defensive lineman’s plan.
"I totally disagree with his decision to not be there," Shanahan told reporters this morning during the NFL owners meeting. "But I respect him being there the first day and sitting down and talking to me man to man. Any time a person’s willing to do that, you feel good about the communication."
Haynesworth is unwilling to take part in the program possibly because he does not like his role in the new 3-4 defense. One year ago he did similar things by expressing his displeasure with Greg Blache’s defense publicly, but this year he has not said anything negative about the contract yet. But Shanahan still expects that Haynesworth could wear back his Redskins jersey to join the offseason workout in preparation for the new season. He said that the team will evaluate Haynesworth to see whether he is in the right shape and has best chance to lead team to win.
