No Deal - Haynesworth and Titans Fail to Reach Long-Term Contract

Despite talk yesterday of the sides talking, the Titans and All-Pro Albert Haynesworth failed to reach an agreement on a long-term contract by the deadline for franchised player.  Chad Speck, the agent for Haynesworth, spoke to the Titans on Monday for a good portion of the day, but they were not able to reach terms on a long-term deal that would have secured Haynesworth’s future in Tennessee.  What can happen now is the sides can keep talking, but they cannot do a deal till after the season.  Haynesworth will play the 2008 season with a one-year deal under the franchise tag.
