Starting to think this is going to linger into the season. I highly, highly doubt the notion that'd he return to DC, but the trade option will enter the regular season. Frustrating situation.

You mean JP Finlay's recent take from NBC Washington.

It's getting closer to brass tax, but I don't agree that we're there yet. If Trent doesn't show up for the first practice of Week 1, then it's time to freak out.

The hammer is still the $11M worth of game checks he'd miss by sitting out games. He doesn't start giving those up until he misses Week 1. If you're freaking out now then you wouldn't be good at a game of chicken. The time to panic and consider veering off course is Week 1.
