Williams, the fourth-overall pick in 2010 NFL Draft, has been seeking a new deal with the team. In June, he skipped the team's minicamp reducing his salary by $150k.

When discussing with @MikeGarafolo the expectation that #Redskins LT Trent Williams holds out, it was also important to note that Williams must be cleared to play.

The 31-year-old is widely regarded as the leagues best offensive tackle, earning seven Pro Bowl appearances.
William signed his current five-year, $66M contract extension in 2015.
