Teammate: No excuse for T. Williams' absence (http://www.csnwashington.com/06/15/11/Teammate-No-excuse-for-T-Williams-absenc/landing.html?blockID=535074&feedID=6458)
Until receiver Malcolm Kelly’s one-day appearance, Williams’ absence is the most surprising considering he has a long way to go in his development.
Left guard Kory Lichtensteiger said Williams should “definitely” be participating.

Given that they are playing a sophisticated version of backyard football, it doesn't bug me if linemen are not there, since there is not that much for them to do. I'm not saying that Kory L. is wrong, just that it is not that big of a deal.
Landry and Atogwe being missing bugs me more. They do have things to do. I wish they were both there building chemistry and mutual understanding.
I can't fault anyone for not showing to these workouts. Real mini camps are one thing, these player organized practices are a different animal.

Landry never shows up. That's just what happens. He's never been big into OTAs/minicamp. He only showed up last season because we were switching defenses.
Atogwe has had any number of family engagements and stuff that was planned months in advance. I'm sure he'd be there if he could.
As for Trent, this isn't a big deal. At all. There's not a whole lot for linemen to do. It's good for them to just get in the habit of repping the plays, but really, I'd rather have him stay at home and work out on his own then risk being injured. He was really effective at the beginning of the season, but then all his injuries started to pile up. Problems with his knee, calf, shoulder, all on one side of his body.
In the old days, the offseason was supposed to be about healing. From everything we've heard, Trent's been working on regularly and doing stuff with Adrian Peterson. He'll be ready for camp, and really, that's all that matters.

I'm pretty sure Pittsburgh hasn't worked out AT ALL this offseason, so...no, they wouldn't have.
