JG -- Hey Haslett and I are good, I can work with him.
BA -- Good answer Jay.

in other words, while I hope Jay was given the option not to keep him, the team made clear that their preference was to let the contract play out.
I have no proof of this, just how I hope it went. Remember, Jay didn't change out a lot of the Bengals staff when he took over at OC. He seems to be a "I'll work with who's there" type coach.

Except the WaPo article about Haslett's retention talks about an extension for him.
