Redskins want to retain QB Campbell

Although the Washington Redskins are still planning to use a high draft pick to get a new quarterback, they won’t just let quarterback Jason Campbell take off his Redskins jersey for new job elsewhere. New Redskins Coach Mike Shanahan has told Campbell to return for 2010 season.

"The plan is that I’m going to be here," Campbell told ESPN on Thursday. "(Shanahan) told me that he liked how I’d handled everything over the past couple of years and the whole conversation was real positive."

The Redskins offensive line was considered to be one of the worst in 2009 season and Campbell was often criticized for not throwing downfield. He was sacked 43 times, third-most in the NFL. However he still managed to complete a career-high 64.5 percent of his passes with 20 touchdowns and 15 interceptions.
