That offer was tongue-in-cheek, but Williams‘ value to the Redskins is no joking matter. When Jordan Black replaced him against the Cincinnati Bengals, the line struggled.
“Trent has a tremendous amount of talent and ability,” Chester said. “If there’s a chance for him to be out there, it’s in our favor.”
With no margin for error between keeping the season alive and falling out of the playoff hunt, the Redskins not only need Williams to play but expect him to.
Said Lichtensteiger: “I’m sure he’ll probably play, yes.”
