    Brian Orakpo is tired of the "nonsense" surrounding Albert Haynesworth and the Washington Redskins.

    "This year, we're not going through all that Albert nonsense. If he's, if he's not, I don't want to discuss it," the two-time Pro Bowl outside linebacker told CSNWashington.com on Tuesday. "I love Albert to death, wish him the best. If he's here, there's a role; if he's not, we have to move on and forget about the saga with Albert, [Donovan] McNabb, you name it. We just have to start winning ballgames and forget about all the drama we go through each and every year."

    The 30-year-old Haynesworth is two years into a seven-year, $100 million contract with the Redskins, who signed him in 2009 to what was then an NFL record of $41 million in guaranteed money.

    But Haynesworth clashed repeatedly with coach Mike Shanahan and frequently skipped workouts. Shanahan suspended Haynesworth for the final four games of last season for conduct detrimental to the team.

    The Redskins open training camp Wednesday and whether Haynesworth will be there remains a question.
