- Trent Williams has asked the NFLPA not to pursue an investigation.

He’s upset that the team leaked out information. Also categorizes it as disinformation. Says if it doesn’t stop, they will pursue action.

Hmmmm..... no independent investigation..... optics don't look great

I def want an investigation...and the Skins should do their due diligence because this is a serious charge by Trent. To stand up there like he did and tell this story...which was pick up and spread by fake news orgs...they shouldn't let it go. This is a bad look. fuck trent if he is lying especially about steps over a cancer diagnosis...seriously fuck him

In order for the investigation to be successful, Trent will have to agree to have his medical records available, without his consent this will be a he said, she said.

Based on what is being leaked it sounds like it might be in TWs best interest to not have the records available. If the tumor was as severe as explained and he has nerve damage then there is no way he is getting a guaranteed contract like he wants.

Aside from that, it would prove that he lied about the medical care provided in an effort to extort more money from a team that had made him the highest paid LT in the league with a heavily front loaded contract. What team is going to give big money to a player who would do THAT? It would be like choosing to get married to a woman when you know she has a history of cheating on her husbands, getting divorced, and taking half their assets. Smart teams don't do that.

That is speculation too. I am more of an innocent until proven guilty kind of guy, but if you are going to force me to choose sides based on speculation alone I would say I trust TW way more than our FO.

It seems to me that you are more of a guilty until proven innocent type of guy. Williams is the accuser here.

Now he's the one that doesn't want an independent investigation? The Redskins offered to fire anyone on their medical staff that was responsible and Williams said he didn't want to cause anyone to lose their job. Huh? You claim that they told you not to worry about a cancerous growth and you don't want them fired? Now the Redskins request the League and the players union that an independent investigation be run to get to the bottom of it and Williams tells the union he doesn't want an investigation. Why on earth not?

Bruce Allen has proven to be absolutely terrible for this team, but in this one instance, it is looking like the player is probably the one that isn't being truthful.

Agree that TW handled this poorly not sure what your point is.
