If Matt Hasselbeck was a target of the New Orleans Saints, he isn't worried about it.

Hasselbeck, receiver Mike Williams and running back Marshawn Lynch were reportedly targets of the Saints when they lost to the Seattle Seahawks in the 2010 playoffs.

Hasselbeck, now with the Tennessee Titans, said via TitanInsider that it is no big deal to him.

“It's an aggressive style of defense and they're known for their exotic blitz packages and getting hits on the quarterback," Hasselbeck said. "I think every time you play those guys that's what you expect. When he (Gregg Williams) was in Washington it was the same kind of thing. They were a tough team to prepare for.”
