Re: Trent Williams ends season-long holdout, rejoins Redskins

Williams should have come out publicly whenever he made his decision and said that due to irreconcilable differences over the handling of a personal matter he is asking that the Redskins pursue a trade. By staying publicly silent he was as negligent in this as the FO. And that is setting aside that this is a multi year health issue. We are not talking about someone with limited resources, who has to rely on work or govt healthcare. It was obviously not football related, and he should have seen specialists early on.

Only the Redskins could screw up something like this though, think of all the NFL critical catch propaganda, and even Mrs Snyder's own cancer scare.

Bottomline for me is it still seems like some things don't add up, and the Skins are going to find ways to screw it up more even if TW handled it poorly

I agree with the bold part, it's tough to determine which side is at fault since we don't have full answers. However, there is one thing that is evident - Allen messed this up a big time. Williams emphasized that he doesn't have any issues with Snyder, in fact he loves him but refused to say anything when a reporter asked him about Allen. Allen obviously is on a power trip and tried to force Williams' hands in this situation.

Based on those comments and all other things we have seen since last few years, I'm starting to feel like Snyder has been mostly hands off in football operations and let Allen take care of things because Allen supposedly knows what he is doing.. At this point, I hope things will look bad for Redskins after NFL and NFLPA review the case because if they concluded Redskins failed to do the job appropriately, I don't see how Snyder keep Allen after this situation.
