NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Matt Hasselbeck arrived in Nashville on Friday and immediately went through physicals and other testing. Under the labor deal, he can't take the field with his teammates until Aug. 4 and will have to work out on his own until then.

But he spoke to reporters Friday night and said it had been a wild and emotional couple of days. He thanked the fans in Seattle and said he's ready to get to work in Tennessee. He'll be trying on his helmet and shoulder pads Saturday morning.

"As a 13-year NFL vet, it's exciting,'' Hasselbeck said. "It's a little like the first day of school walking in a locker room where you don't know everybody. The guys came in just having run their conditioning tests. Myself and Shaun are basically coming from the airport. I'm looking forward to it, but I can tell there's quality people here.''
