Trent Williams ends season-long holdout, rejoins Redskins

I like the move by the Skins here.

Yep me too. I want to know who made this decision - Snyder, the medical team, or Allen? If it's Snyder or the medical team, or other staff not named Allen then I would think it's the move they made out of concerns. However, if it was Allen then I would agree with Sunny below.


Your organization sounds like a reasonable, proactive and intelligent group that is genuinely concerned and motivated to maintain a high level of care and performance in your field.

The Redskins are none of those things. Im assuming here but I assume the Skins are doing this as a fact finding mission to gather evidence to use against Trent and not for quality control purposes.

Either way ... seems like the respective parties are preparing for a long, drawn out trench warfare. Let the nitpicking and airing of dirty laundry begin!

I wouldn't be surprised if this is only reason why they made this move.. I'm looking forward to what conclusion NFL and NFLPA come up with, it will help us figure out which side (if not both) made mistakes. But it is very clear that Allen made this situation worse than it should have been.

Read this fake news headline from CNN:

https://www-m.cnn.com/2019/11/01/us/trent-williams-cancer-scare-washington-holdout-trnd/index.html?r=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cnn.com%2F

Can you spot the fake news?

“NFL-er Trent Williams says he had a cancerous growth on his scalp and his team didn't do anything about it”

FAke fuckin garbage cnn

The whole damn title is total misleading.... cnn sucks ass!! You can have lumps that are not cancer that can over time change.. skin issues due to sun exposure.. mouth ulcers due to dipping , smoking.. you can’t tell me that the redskins knew that Trent had cancer and did nothing about it.. I’m taking a stance agianst that type of reporting ! It’s bull crap !!

Casserly:

3 years ago the Redskins doctors told Trent to see a specialist. The specialist said they couldn’t tell if it was cancerous and recommended surgery. Trent chose not to do so. This is all completely about money and he’s lied about the medical staff mishandling things to make it appear otherwise.

If this is true, Trent should be suspended without pay for the rest of the year for conduct detrimental to the team. His contract should toll. The skins should sue him for slander.

The fact that this lump was discovered 6 years ago and waited till June to do something about it is fishy and stupid.

Looks like casserly was being feed information from Bruce and legal action could be going the other way. Bruce totally fucked this up from day one

Look at the Patriots vs ravens games. The Pat’s LT played like crap and helped lose them the game. The could’ve used TW at the start of the season or beyond. Same with Texans or with the Browns. BA wouldn’t even hear what had to say when they called 3 months ago !! Not until it impossibly late to make a deal. If he’d done an EASY TRADE IN AUGUST OR SEPTEMBER wE’d be sitting be with a First rounder OR MORE now. But due to BA’s arrogance, obstinance and plain stupidity he blew an easy trade potential with TW.

BA is considered that worst GM in the NFL in terms of lack of talent, pettiness, lack of preparation before a meeting and trustworthiness. I hope the critical mass of BA’s buffoonery gets him fired by Snyder.
WE can’t take another Season with his mistakes and “ damn good culture’”

While I think we can all agree BA is delusional idiot, this tweet is interesting

- Trent Williams has asked the NFLPA not to pursue an investigation.

He’s upset that the team leaked out information. Also categorizes it as disinformation. Says if it doesn’t stop, they will pursue action.

Hmmmm..... no independent investigation..... optics don't look great

I def want an investigation...and the Skins should do their due diligence because this is a serious charge by Trent. To stand up there like he did and tell this story...which was pick up and spread by fake news orgs...they shouldn't let it go. This is a bad look. fuck trent if he is lying especially about steps over a cancer diagnosis...seriously fuck him

This is an ugly situation that is only going to get uglier. I only have two hopes for the outcome:
1) The truth comes out
2) Bruce Allen is fired.

Whether right or wrong (and its mostly been wrong), Bruce has presided over too many toxic situations.

This team needs a fresh start.
