The Rams, Redskins and Broncos have been publicly identified as the three teams that could sign free agent running back Brian Westbrook, who seems to be taking his sweet old time about deciding where to play in 2010.

But is Westbrook taking a long time to sign because he's sorting through more than three offers?

That's what Steve Wyche of NFL.com said Thursday on NFL Network's Total Access. Wyche reports that more teams than just the Rams, Redskins and Broncos would like to sign Westbrook.

However, Wyche didn't identify the source who told him that, and he said he didn't know which teams were interested in acquiring Westbrook's services. That leaves open the possibility that this is really about Westbrook's camp trying to make it look like he has more suitors than he really does.

One way or another, though, Wyche reports that Westbrook, who will turn 31 in September and is coming off an injury plagued season, definitely wants to play in 2010.

Hmm.
