That's exactly what Haynesworth said in the only interview he's given since the season ended. I dont know where people get the "I don't want to play NT" quote from. He never said he didn't want to play the position, he let it be known it wasn't his prefered position, but that he would play wherever they wanted him to play. It's a made up story designed to give credence to whatever dislike some people (for various reasons) have for the man. I watched the interview so I know exactly what he said.
