Trent Williams Trade Rumors: Redskins Talked to Multiple Teams Before NFL Draft

There could be a resolution to the ongoing saga between Trent Williams and the Washington Redskins soon.

Per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, the Redskins have talked to multiple teams interested in acquiring Williams leading up to the 2020 NFL draft.

ESPN's Josina Anderson reported Tuesday that Williams is "still on the table" for the Cleveland Browns, but a deal isn't "imminent or super close right now." Mike Garafolo of NFL Network later reported the Redskins "have closed the window" for Williams and his agent to work out a trade and that Washington wants "full control" of the situation.

Williams has wanted a trade or release from Washington since last offseason, as the seven-time Pro Bowler was unhappy with how the team handled a medical situation, per CBS Sports' Jason La Canfora.

Last October, Williams told reporters a growth he had surgically removed from his head was cancerous and the team called it "minor" in an initial diagnosis six years earlier.

After initially holding out hoping to be traded or released, Williams reported to the Redskins on Oct. 29 after the trade deadline passed. His season came to an end Nov. 7 when the team placed him on the reserve/non-football injury list following a failed physical "due to helmet discomfort associated with the removed growth," per Nick Shook of NFL.com.

Rapoport noted any deal involving Williams would be contingent on him being able to pass a physical. The 31-year-old is owed $12.5 million in the final season of a five-year, $68 million deal he signed in 2015.

Williams—the No. 4 pick in the 2010 draft—has started 119 of the 120 games he's played. He was named to the Pro Bowl every season from 2012 to 2018.
