"Washington Redskins defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth has been indicted on two misdemeanor traffic charges in Tennessee after an accident that seriously injured another driver. District Attorney Kim Helper says Haynesworth faces charges of reckless driving and having expired registration. Haynesworth, a former Titan who signed with the Redskins last month, was released after surrendering Wednesday. Maximum punishment is six months in jail and a $500 fine on the reckless driving charge and 30 days and a $50 fine for the other charge. The charges come from a Dec. 13 incident in which police say Haynesworth was trying to pass another driver, who crashed into a concrete median (ESPN)."
Redskins have to be kinda pissed about this. I mean they just forked over a shit load of money to this guy, and he is already in trouble. I actually wonder if they knew about this before they signed him. Anyways, he'll most likely will just have to pay a fine for this, and lose his license for awhile. I doubt the NFL will step in here, so there should be no real impact on his playing status.
