Trent Williams return complicated for Redskins

At his most frustrated, Trent Williams said he wanted nothing to do with the Washington Redskins. The seven-time Pro Bowler held out for months, unhappy about how the team handled a growth on his scalp that was later determined to be cancerous. Even when he returned midseason, Williams made it clear he still did not trust the organization.

These days, after significant changes to the Redskins’ front office and training staff, Williams is at least returning the team’s phone calls.

According to multiple reports, Williams had a “positive conversation” recently with new Redskins coach Ron Rivera, who is trying to repair the left tackle’s fractured relationship with the franchise.
