The Washington Redskins don’t have long to iron things out with left tackle Trent Williams.
But that seems to be the plan, as Ron Rivera has made it clear he wants to try and fix the relationship between the team and the star offensive lineman.
Is it possible? Hard to say, though things seemed to take a turn once the Redskins reshuffled the front office, the most notable move being the dismissal of Bruce Allen.
If a meeting and mending of the relationship is to take place, it sounds like it will have to happen before the upcoming draft. Here’s a note from ESPN’s John Keim:
In other words, expect contact between the two sides soon. If nothing comes from the potential meet(s), the Redskins might move quickly to acquire more draft capital while offloading a guy who doesn’t want to be with the team.
Or put another way, the weeks and months before the draft are much more interesting thanks to factors besides free agency.
