Linebacker London Fletcher told Fox Sports' Alex Marvez that if the Washington Redskins can't work out a deal before free agency begins March 13, he won't hesitate to test the market.

"Hopefully, we'll get something done," Fletcher said Tuesday night. "But if I make it to March 13 (unsigned), who knows?"

Despite being 36, he led the NFL with a career-best 166 tackles in 2011. So even though he's getting along in years, there's no doubt he'd command a lot of interest in free agency

I love Fletcher more than anybody on this team. I'd be devastated to see him leave, but if he's looking for an unreasonably large contract then it's time to move on. He's 37 years old, and inside linebacker is one of the easiest positions to replace as far as productivity. The only thing that would be greatly missed is his leadership.

Dude is 37. He's not going to get some major offer.
