For those asking about Trent Williams. I spoke to him earlier this month for a story that should be out shortly. Asked him about a return if Allen was gone. This is what he said at the time: pic.twitter.com/j9JS55r84o

The Washington Redskins canned Bruce Allen on Monday alongside a few other moves aimed at overhauling how things are done both in the front office and at every level of football operations.
Is that enough to lure someone like Trent Williams back to the team? Maybe not given the life-threatening nature of the left tackle’s injury saga that made him leave the team in the first place,
But the above quote provided by ESPN’s John Keim — taken well before Monday — sure looks interesting now.
Based on that, Williams still understandably has an attachment to the guys in the locker room. If the business side of things is all that needed fixing to make things right, what’s stopping the Redskins from dangling an extension after making these moves to the front office?
Maybe nothing. One thing is for sure — small as the chance probably still is, Monday’s moves seem to suggest a Williams return is more likely than it was just a few days prior.
