- Was not viewed by his coach as being ready to start for these reasons, not his skill
- Did not earn the starting job until he had a come to Jesus talk with Callahan, begin to improve on these things, with the help of Alex Smith as a mentor
- Was seen on the sideline talking AT his veteran offensive line asking what he could do to help them. They did not show the appearance of receiving his comments favorably
- Missed the last snap of a play to take a selfie with a fan
- Missed the Head Coaches introductory press conference
- Tweeted that he was ready to get to work, yet has not been reported to have met with coaches or been to Redskins Park
These are all OBJECTIVE facts.
Whether one thinks none of this matters, or is a sign of a troubling pattern, is SUBJECTIVE.

Are you serious w/ this nonsense? By all accounts he was starting to come around at the end of the year. He is a very young kid put in a very tough spot. Let him grow into his role as a leader. You don't walk out of one year of college and become the team leader.
