ASHBURN, Va. — Still no practice
for Albert Haynesworth, a day after the Washington Redskins ordered a
precautionary MRI on his sore left knee.

Haynesworth did not take team's
conditioning test Friday morning for the fourth straight day. Coach
Mike Shanahan has said Haynesworth will not be allowed to practice
until the test is passed.

Haynesworth had an MRI on Thursday,
but Shanahan called it a "preventative measure." The knee has bothered
Haynesworth for several years. Shanahan was expected to discuss the MRI
after Friday's practice.

Haynesworth failed the conditioning
test each of the first two days of training camp, but his knee has
hampered his efforts to try again. He started the test Monday but
stopped when the knee acted up.
