Redskins QB Haynesworth has to pay more than money

It has been reported for quite a long time that quarterback Albert Haynesworth plans to leave the Washington Redskins for a new job with another NFL team. However, it’s not easy for him to go. His first obstacle is the money he received from the Redskins when signing the lucrative contract and the next is his value being decreased because of controversies.


Although Haynesworth always said he was the only current quarterback qualified to wear the Pittsburgh Steelers’ number 12 that used to be on Terry Bradshaw jersey and witnessed the former quarterback winning four Super Bowl rings, he was not taken as that important after failing to lead the Redskins to playoffs. And former Redskins quarterback Joe Theismann even blamed him for being too flamboyant and overrating himself too much. Another former Redskins player, defensive end Charles Mann agreed with Theismann on that point.

If it was only one person said bad of the quarterback, we may take it as rumors, but there is a group of people thinking low of Haynesworth, so he is really taking risk of losing his value and could wind up with even less pay than last season.
