The first offseason of discontent between Albert Haynesworth and the Redskins was so much fun that we could be headed for another round.

Rick Maese of the Washington Post writes that the Redskins are “highly unlikely” to simply cut Haynesworth this offseason, instead looking to trade him. Good luck with that.

Haynesworth is due $5.4 million and any interested team could just wait out the Redskins.

Mike Shanahan isn’t afraid of a little drama, but it’s hard to imagine him bringing back the guy who ignored him and wore a jacket that said “PUNK” to the locker room Monday. Really.
