Albert Haynesworth played in his first game for the Patriots on Thursday night in the team's preseason finale against the Giants. Afterward, Haynesworth gushed about his short time in New England, calling it a "career-saving place." He even suggested that he would have given up all the money he earned with the Redskins if he could have come to the Patriots sooner. "(Fellow former Redskins defensive lineman Andre Carter and I) were talking, just about how different it is, how we really like this place," Haynesworth said. "For me, it's a career-saving place for me to come. I had no idea it would be like this. It's unbelievable. I wish I kinda took two years ago and came here."
