Washington Redskins coach Mike Shanahan seemed to rule out a potential trade of DT Albert Haynesworth this week when he met with reporters on Wednesday.

Speculation on a potential trade of Haynesworth has risen since Tuesday when ESPN and the AP reported the Redskins had discussed a deal with the Tennessee Titans.

Shanahan said he wouldn't discuss the rumors, other than to say, "Albert will be with our team on Sunday." (Via the Washington Post)

TEAM DRAMA: Orakpo says Haynesworth situation is 'distracting'

It's unknown if Haynesworth will play when the Redskins open the season against the Dallas Cowboys. He and Shanahan have engaged in a war of wills throughout the year. He was the only player Shanahan forced to submit to a conditioning test at the start of training camp.

Titans coach Jeff Fisher said Tuesday that the Titans would entertain a potential trade for Haynesworth, who played for the team from 2002-2008. He did not confirm if the Titans had already discussed a deal.
