Report: Haynesworth Fails Test

Albert Haynesworth (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?playerId=3543)'s first training camp under coach Mike Shanahan reportedly is off to a poor start.

The defensive tackle, who skipped all of the Washington Redskins (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/clubhouse?team=was)' offseason workouts prior to camp because he was unhappy with the team's switch in defensive schemes, failed his conditioning test Thursday, FoxSports.com reported.

Haynesworth finished the first part of the test but walked through the second part, FoxSports.com reported, citing unnamed sources.

Shanahan told Haynesworth on Wednesday that he would have to pass a conditioning test in order to practice with his teammates.

"I'm expecting him to be in great shape," Shanahan said Wednesday. "And if he's not in great shape, then we're going to do what we need to do to get him in shape.

"Once he gets to that point, hopefully he'll fit into our system and do the things we want him to do. Because, if he does, he can be an excellent football player for us. If not, we're going to be very good anyhow."

Asked if he expected Haynesworth to be a part of the team in 2010, Shanahan would say only: "We'll see."

"All I can do is tell you we're going to give him every opportunity to show us what we can do," the coach said. "Hopefully he'll like the position that we play him in and give us everything that he's got."

The "position that we play him in" is the main point of consternation for Haynesworth. He's unhappy with the Redskins' switch to a 3-4 defense and would rather play for another team. Shanahan was ready to grant that wish in February and March -- but the door was shut once Haynesworth collected the $21 million bonus on April 1, part of the seven-year contract he signed a year earlier. The deal is part of the enduring legacy of a decade of bad offseason signings under owner Dan Snyder.

Information from The Associated Press was used in this report.

Whats the world coming to when fine outstanding citizens such as Albert Haynesworth start to slack off? How could we have known this would come to pass...

ROFL @ Snyder!

McNabb deserves better than what he is going to get in DC.

[Kyle DeLexus]

I thought all the reports were he lost like 41lbs in an attempt to be a DE in the 3-4? I figured if he lost that kind of weight he'd at least be in decent shape.

Shanny is taking the hard line with that asshole. Hope they sue him for the money he stole.

[Mr. Flopnuts]

He's a P.O.S.

[vailpass]

He's a P.O.S.

You take 20+ million dollars and then say you don't like the position they want you to play so you aren't going to play?
Absolutely agree with you, that is a P.O.S. punk move.

[Iowanian]

You know, for a $21mil bonus, if he shows up fat and out of shape not due to injury, the team should be able to recoup that.

There HAS to be incentive and the players have to be accountable for the money they're making.

It's one thing if it is a talent or injury issue, it's completely different when they're fat, lazy or have a shitty attitude.

In his defense, he didn't take 20 mil to play in the 3-4.

[Iowanian]

For $20mil, if Dan Snyder wants him to stand on his desk in a jockstrap and booty clap for an hour, he should take a puff of powder to his butt and start singing the milkshake song on the way to work.

[vailpass]

In his defense, he didn't take 20 mil to play in the 3-4.

No. He took $20 million to play for the Washington Redskins.

['Hamas' Jenkins]

You do all realize that Shanahan made him run a third sprint after he passed the first two.

He claimed he had "too much rest" between the first and second sprint. I'm sure this isn't a case of Shanahan pissing on the hydrants or anything. Where has he ever shown that behavior in the past?

FWIW, they were 3 300 yard sprints. Originally, he was only supposed to do 2.

A head NFL coach showing a prima donna player who is boss? Vince Lombardi must be rolling over in his grave.

['Hamas' Jenkins]

Actually, it appears that this happened:

Albert Haynesworth (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?playerId=3543)'s inability to run a third 300-yard sprint in a satisfactory time in the eyes of coach Mike Shanahan prevented him from practicing with the Redskins Thursday.
Haynesworth had to pass a conditioning test Thursday and he entered the day planning to do two sprints. According to a source, Shanahan believed Haynesworth had too much rest time between his runs and asked for a third.




Haynesworth failed the third sprint. A source said Haynesworth told Shanahan he never ran three such sprints during his best Pro Bowl seasons. Shanahan then told Haynesworth that he must not have ever been in shape, according to the source.


Shanahan and Haynesworth have been feuding since Shanahan became coach of the Redskins in early January. Haynesworth skipped all offseason work with the team because he didn't want to be in the team's new 3-4 defensive scheme.


Haynesworth reported to the team Wednesday 30 to 40 pounds lighter but was told he would work with the backups when he returned to the field.
It is not known when Haynesworth will have his next test.


FoxSports.com first reported that Haynesworth had failed his conditioning test.

I despise Haynesworth, but when the guy shows up 40 pounds lighter and he passes your conditioning tests and then you make him run a third, it seems like it's more of a problem with you than it is him.

['Hamas' Jenkins]

It'd be a little bit different if Shanahan didn't have a historical of being an egotistical cockbag himself.

He wanted him to fail to make an example out of him, so he made him do more than the other guys on the team.

Haynesworth has handled his entire Washington tenure like an ass, but that doesn't mean that Shanahan wasn't being a fucktard here.

[Iowanian]

when Stompfaceworth was walking the 3rd sprint, Shanarat should have shouted "Is this what we can expect from you in the 4th quarter for a hundred million dollars?!"



I can remember "re-running" sprints or redoing drills in Jr High and High School because someone was loafing or didn't do it right. Considering it's the first he's bothered to show up, I think it's fair and he should do what the f he is told to do, to get into the shape they expect from the hundred million dollar man.

[Brock]

Well, he is a convenient high paid whipping boy for Shanahan to set an example with. Redskin fan probably loves this.

Yeah, but if you were doing a drill all by yourself, and you passed the drill, then the coach made you run it again, and then you didn't pass it after you've shown that you can do it, how does that help you?

The point of a conditioning test is to make sure that everyone can meet a minimum standard of fitness. He did that. Making him do it over again is just grandstanding for the purpose of embarrassing him.

Until there's a clause in his contract that says with increases in pay come increases in baseline requirements, it's a stupid ass thing to do.

The player told the team to suck it, showed up at camp, and then had the audacity to pass the standard fitness test.

We just cannot have that.

If you want to make an example out of him, make his ass run laps for fucking up in drills, or fine him for saying stupid shit. Put him with the 3rd stringers.

Making him re-do the conditioning drill is retarded and transparent.

I get that people don't like Haynesworth. He's a piece of shit as a human being and largely appears to be a paycheck player. But when he does what everyone else is asked to do on the field and you continue to fuck with him, you just undermine your own authority.

Yes, they wanted him lighter so that he could play 5 technique for them. He lost the weight and showed up to camp in good enough shape to pass a pretty tough conditioning test (2 300 yard sprints)

tough test for a DL if true

couldn't happen to a better person though

[1ChiefsDan]

If you take the company view, and if you've been in charge of anyone, ever, you should know that if you require different things of different people in the same area it breeds discontent.Problem is we don't have all the facts. How quickly was he supposed to do the 300 yard sprints? If it was something like 2 within 30 minutes and he did 2 within an hour - he didn't pass the test.

Also, if you read the entire story, most of the players didn't have to do the conditioning tests because they were present for a certain percentage of the off season workouts.

[-King-]

Yes, they wanted him lighter so that he could play 5 technique for them. He lost the weight and showed up to camp in good enough shape to pass a pretty tough conditioning test (2 300 yard sprints)

I'm pretty sure they wanted him to play nose.




But yeah, I agree with you that that was a retard move by Shanny to make him run a 3rd sprint.

[KCBOSS1]

This is simply "running the bleachers" NFL style. This is Shanahan taking ownership of this team. Shanahan's like "He's going to do this until he's conditioned to do it. It may be tomorrow or a few days or a week....." What, you can't get conditioned in a day or two or a week. But you can get punished for a day or two or a week depending on how well you suck up and scream "I Love the 3-4!" from the treadmill.

I agree with you. From what has been reported Haynesworth was the only one required to do this test because he missed the entire offseason workouts. Nevermind that the offseason programs ended a month ago so who is to say that other players didn't lay around for the last 30 days and get fat and out of shape.

[DeezNutz]

Saw some shots of Redskins training camp on ESPN this morning. Dude didn't exactly look "fat and out of shape."

Why do some of you here say he is being asked to run 300 yard sprints?
They are doing (6) 25 yard shuttles. Big difference.
Shuttles prepare a football player for the game by letting them go in short bursts and stretch their hammys, knees, ankles etc.
Sprints don't do any of that.

Jeff Fisher's words, not mine.

Per Yahoo news today Haynesworth was forced to run on the treadmill first then a bunch of drills then the 300 yard workout .. Ratface knew he couldn't pass the workout ... He's just showing Haynesworth he's the boss ......

On Thursday, his inability to run a third 300-yard sprint in a satisfactory time in the eyes of coach Mike Shanahan prevented him from practicing with the Redskins.

ESPN

This morning on the DP show Jeff Fisher said the Redskins run the same conditioning drill as the Titans, 25 yard shuttles sets of 6. He said sprints don't condition the linemen for football, don't get their joints and muscles used to starting and stopping.
Shanny and Fisher are close friends and have been for most of their careers. They share tactics and draft info.

Albert Haynesworth skips test again

ASHBURN, Va. -- The Albert Haynesworth (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?playerId=3543) saga has now reached its sixth day.

The two-time All-Pro defensive tackle did not attempt the Washington Redskins (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/clubhouse?team=was) conditioning test Tuesday. He won't be allowed to practice until he passes it.

Haynesworth tried to take the test Monday morning, but he pulled up after three back-and-forth sprints because he felt some irritation in his left knee.

Haynesworth failed the test on the first day of training camp Thursday after taking an extended bathroom break in the middle of it. He failed again Friday when he didn't post a sufficient time, then didn't take it Saturday or Sunday because of soreness in his left knee.

After Monday's practice, he stayed for what has become a daily ritual -- a solo session with defensive coaches to walk through some of the plays.

[Mr. Laz]

Finally! Albert Haynesworth passes conditioning test

Determined to get out of the doghouse and onto the practice field, Haynesworth arrived at Redskins Park this morning at 5:30 (http://voices.washingtonpost.com/redskinsinsider/3-4-defense/albert-haynesworth-on-board-as.html?hpid=artslot), according to Jason Reid of the Washington Post. Per the report, Haynesworth passes the first run in 66 seconds and the second in 70 seconds. His time limits were 70 and 73, respectively.
Per one source, Haslett was “happy as hell” that Haynesworth passed. Washington can now get him on the field in the middle of the defense and begin really coaching him up after he skipped the entire offseason program. Now, the focus can turn to football.

For $21 million, I would be more than happy to humiliate myself by taking it. Also, I was just quoting the commercial.

Well I would definitely give it a shot,I'm just saying I'm not sure I could pass it.Which is really,really,sad.

Oh, I know for sure that I wouldn't pass it. However, for $21 million, I sure as hell would keep trying until I passed it.

Yeah you can bet your ass I would get into shape to earn that kind of $$$$ vs what I'm earning now.:D

LMAO

Mike Golic, who's 47 years old, and 16 years removed from the NFL, just passed the same conditioning test Haynesworth is subject to on NFL Live.

How embarrassing is it that a 47 year old who hasn't trained for this can do it, but multi-million dollar athletes can't?

Sign him up!

What an out of shape piece of $hit...
