Yeah, that was weird when I first heard about it (I didn’t catch that part live) but I don’t think it’s some kind of bumbling misspeak that most people seem to be making it out to be.  I think it’s a poorly told joke. There is one video circulating that includes Rivera off to the side when Dan...

Rivera talked to/spent time with Joe Gibbs before deciding on taking the Redskin's HC job. Holy crap, how cool is that.  Not that I know any more than the next Average Joe (no pun intended) about Xs and Os, but that would be a dream come true, to hang out with Gibbs, having him draw up plays...

For me, I don't think OL has to be a top draft priority.  In no particular order, I would put CB, LB (mostly MLB) and TE ahead of OL as the 'Skin's top positional needs.  I'm like dgreen in that I'd much rather see 1.2 used on the BPA over just filling a position of need.  Also, even though this...

Man, I really want to get all the warm fuzzies after watching Rivera’s press conference, but I’ve got 20 years of scar tissue buildup that just won’t allow it.  My New Years Resolution is to wait until this time next year in order to decide on whether I jump back in to Redskins fandom with both...

Hmm, I’m still not a big fan that the front office stuff wasn’t  figured out/finalized more before the HC hire. Just seems backwards, IMO.  I’m sure there are examples where it’s worked, but history seems to suggest (to me) that this is putting the cart before the horse. 

Albert Breer update “Word is the Redskins are going to move fast, and more changes could be coming on the football side as soon as Monday. Obviously, the big question is going to relate to the status of team president Bruce Allen. Owner Dan Snyder has led the process over the last couple months...

I’d be surprised if he hates them for the reasons we want him to hate them. 

Williams did a couple of interviews with local beat reporters, here and here. From the second link, Williams commenting on criticism regarding his motives for his actions, or perceived inactions: If you want a peek behind the curtain at the ineptitude that plagues that organization, those...

From the Hoffman piece: I wasn't really aware that there was no "SOP" for performing a physical in the NFL.  But, piecing together some tweets from various sources, this is what it had sounded like to me last week.  That he got the green light until the helmet issue.  There's no flippin way an...

Mike Jones got an interview with Trent for USA Today and Craig Hoffman of 106.7 was given a follow-up interview with him. Lots of crazy stuff in there.  I feel for Williams.  I wish I could feel angrier towards the front office, but at this point, this isn't shocking that the current leadership...

Tweet from Field Yates: "The Redskins put on a clinic on how to completely waste a season of one of the most talented offensive tackles in football 👍."

Redskins place Trent Williams on Non-Football Injury List. Tweet from Field Yates: "The Redskins put on a clinic on how to completely waste a season of one of the most talented offensive tackles in football ."

The CYA tactics begin

The CYA tactics have begun.

Wow.  Trent Williams had an 18 minute presser regarding his situation.  Turns out he had a tumor that the Redskins medical staff misdiagnosed as a cyst for six years.  When he finally got the cancer diagnosis a doctor told him to "get his affairs in order" and that it was very possible he could...

Oh yeah. I forgot about the two week exemption. 

Exactly.  His reporting was just a business move to make sure 2019 counted as a contract year.  The "helmet issue" is absolutely BS, but something the team should have been expecting (maybe not the helmet issue, specifically, but that there would be some reason for him to not participate in...

Bill Callahan was quoted as saying that Trent "did not pass his physical".  I've seen a report of other team sources that say he actually passed the physical, and then didn't practice because of the discomfort he had putting on/wearing a helmet.

I'm guessing we will see a Jalen Ramsey-like situation where Trent will have some new health or personal "issue" each week that lands him on the inactive list.

That's what Callahan said in his presser, but I saw a tweet that said he actually passed the physical but didn't practice because of discomfort putting a helmet on.
