The light was on in Trent Williams‘ locker Monday. He just was not there when practice ended.
Monday wasn’t just the restart of formal work for the Washington Redskins after the bye week. It was the first day for the Redskins to move forward on the field without Williams, their Pro Bowl left tackle, who was relegated to a visitor because of a four-game suspension for violating the league’s substance abuse policy announced last week.
Williams is allowed at Redskins Park to attend meetings. He chatted about the Minnesota Vikings‘ defense with right tackle Morgan Moses, talked to some other players in the morning.
