so take that for what you will

Clearly, your source isn't keeping up with the outstanding insiders at the Post:
Redskins Insider - Analysis: Shanahan in test of wills with Haynesworth
Quote:
And earlier Wednesday, it was learned Haynesworth probably will not attend Washington's first voluntary minicamp that begins April 16.
Haynesworth plans to participate in all mandatory offseason team events under the terms of the collective bargaining agreement, two people with knowledge of the situation said. But Haynesworth would not face disciplinary action for skipping non-mandatory activities at the park.
It's one thing for Haynesworth to train on his own, which irritated Shanahan. But for Haynesworth, the Redskins' highest-paid player and arguably their most talented, to be elsewhere during a minicamp, well, I imagine that would simply be unacceptable to Shanahan.
...
Haynesworth has made it clear he does not want to play the nose. Shanahan has made it clear Haynesworth is the Redskins' starting nose tackle. In holding firm with Haynesworth, Shanahan is sending a clear message that he sets the agenda for the Redskins -- not the players. Even a player as talented as Haynesworth.

I thought it was said that AH did plan on being at the April minicamp?
