Redskins have released veteran LB Adam Hayward
The Washington Redskins released veteran inside linebacker Adam Hayward on Friday morning.
Hayward was entering his ninth season in the NFL, and was recovering from a torn ACL he sustained last year. He had been signed to the Redskins three years ago to anchor their special teams.
Signed to a three-year, $3 million deal ahead of the 2014 season, the special teams ace landed on I.R. in November of 2014 and then missed all of last season with a torn ACL.
