It's a bit unclear what's happening there, Ben Standig reported he walked off the field on Tuesday, Payne tweeted he didn't "walked out of practice", Allen came to his defense... And then Ben reported Payne wasn't at OTA's on Thursday.

Did I get this right ?

Anyway, I won't get mad at players for trying to get leverage in contract negotiations. But I sure hope this won't be a lingering distraction, this defense needs some cohesion.

Something seems off with Payne and his relationship w/ the front office. They paid Allen and made him a company man, yet w/ Payne nothing. He isn't in any of the promotional stuff, none of the tv ads. He wasn't in any of the stuff for the shitty rebrand and no new contract. I think that has to get to him, he's human. He sees what's going on. They don't value him like they do Allen.

Not to mention they drafted his replacement this year

Not sure about this - they may have drafted a replacement for Settle and Ionidis, Not Payne.

For this year sure, but he's clearly earmarked to be the next starting DT next to Allen in '23. They didn't use a 2nd rounder for a rotation guy.

This organization couldn't manage a one-car parade. I expected more of Ron Rivera. Don't misunderstand me. I admire and support RR but I expected more.

If we don't win this season, I don't know what I'll do. It's like we're renting our best players and we'll never have enough of them playing together at the same time to win. Why must the football side be screwed up, too? It's all we have left from the fan experience. I feel as if I'm trapped in a bad marriage with this franchise.

Just about every team will have a couple of similar situations each year. And he is still there.

I don't have any issues with him not participating fully in voluntary sessions. He is making 8.5 million, would not be happy if he missed involuntary sessions, but it's his money.

As long as he stays in shape and is ready to play week 1, he's gotta do what he thinks he needs to do for his future.

Just posting for posterity's sake, Chase Young is at OTA's, not participating obviously, but he's there rehabbing.

Chase Young, Montez Sweat at OTAs this week

I'm guessing there was some miscommunication at the time when Ron said he expected Chase to be here to start - if he knew Chase's schedule called for him to be rehabbing in Colorado I'm sure he would've gave a different answer. Gotta get on the same page Ronnie.

That's good news. Will silence some noise and spare Ron some uncomfortable questions. Rather have him here than not here, and the longer he waited the worse Ron's earlier comments looked.

We were never going to be able to give top dollar to both Allen and Payne. Allen brings more to the table as a leader and he's simply the better player at this point.

Regarding Terry, may I point out that he is using negotiating tactics because he is trying to get a contract extension with the Commanders for fair value. Yes people, we have here a legitimate #1 receiver who wants to be here. I repeat, he wants to be here and we need him. So, the Commanders need to quit pinching pennies and get it done. Terry, barring injury, is as close to a sure thing as we will ever have. Losing him would be gross malpractice by the Commanders.

The longer we wait, the more expensive it gets. Every time a new deal gets announced for another wide receiver the price goes up.

Should have got a deal done right after the season. You know who you got in Terry, no reason to keep waiting. They're handling this the wrong way.

Aka, the Redskins, WFT, Commanders, Snyder standard mode of operations.
