That being said there is no way he comes back Bruce or no Bruce. And even if he would this dipshit owner will make sure the worst gm in the league comes back before a HOF LT does.

I don't think its as complicated as it seems if you sift through all the noise and look at what we do know. The timeline is pretty clear, even from Trent's perspective, that this all started when he asked Allen to redo his contract to give him more guaranteed money and Allen said No.
If Trent
really had an issue with the way the team handled the medical situation, he would have filed a grievance with the NFLPA. But he didn't. Instead, when the team petitioned the league and NFLPA to investigate, Trent refused to allow it.
Its abundantly clear that, although there are probably a lot of emotions and hard feelings involved on both sides, this really is all about money. The Redskins made Trent the highest paid LT in the league. They gave him a front-loaded deal, which means they paid him more money in the early years, and no guaranteed money in the last year. Trent knew the contract he was getting when he signed it - it favored him, not the team. So really, by asking for a new deal when he did, he was trying to have his cake and eat it to. He was essentially wanting every year that he plays to have a high amount of the money guaranteed, but that's not the deal he signed.
Bruce Allen is a lying snake and he needs to go. But so is Trent and so does he. If we really want to change the culture here, we cant tolerate the behavior of either of them.
