The Minnesota Vikings defensive end Jared Allen became one of the people who watched Albert Haynesworth drama with great interests, and according the his recent comments, he seemed to be supporting Haynesworth for holdout against team’s switch to a 3-4 defense.
“I tell you what, I'd show up and just drink water for $30 million,” Allen told KTAR, an interview transcribed by SportsRadioInterviews.com. “Honestly, I don't know the circumstances so I can't judge anybody. I mean, obviously there are some uncertainties there. I'm sure both sides are a little bit at fault. It's one of those things, I'm a firm believer, you sign a contract, and obviously they are doing their part by paying you. Honor the contract by showing up and play it out.”
The Redskins have threatened that if Haynesworth wants to leave he will have to pay the $32 million he received from the team during the past one year back. And Haynesworth did announce that he would appear for the training camp but would do nothing but sit in his beloved Brett Favre jersey watching others working out. I guess he would be glad if he gets to know that Favre’s teammate is supporting him.
