Redskins' Haynesworth has swollen knee, sits out again

Football Betting Lines

07/31/2010 - Ashburn, VA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Washington Redskins defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth did not practice for a third straight day, though this time because of a swollen knee.

Haynesworth was held out of practice Thursday and Friday after failing to pass a conditioning test each day. But Saturday morning, Haynesworth experienced swelling in his knee and was told not to take the test, which he needs to pass before practicing with the team.

Because Haynesworth did not attend the majority of the team's voluntary offseason programs and skipped the mandatory minicamp in June, due to an objection to his role in the team's new defensive scheme, he must pass the conditioning test.

New head coach Mike Shanahan has said he wants to make sure the two-time Pro Bowl selection is in shape before putting him in practices.

Kurt Warner to start, Matt Leinart to watch

Despite the debate that's swirling , Kurt Warner will remain the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals, coach Dennis Green said today. The Arizona Cardinals are the +7 point underdog at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com for this Sunday's game.

Green's comment came in a statement released by the team following an ESPN report that Green decided that rookie Matt Leinart would replace Warner as starter for Sunday's game at Atlanta.

"Generally talking about the starting lineup is not something we do," Green told the AP. "However, given the speculation that was out there we want to make it clear. We're disappointed after last week, but we still expect to be a playoff football team and we fully expect Kurt Warner to be the quarterback that leads us. That has not changed."
