Left tackle Trent Williams was at Washington’s facility on Thursday to attend meetings Dwayne Haskins Jersey , but he remained out of practice a day after failing a physical because he felt discomfort when he put on his helmet.Williams had a growth removed from his head this offseason and the handling of that medical issue was at the heart of his decision to stay away from the team until after Tuesday’s trade deadline. Word has been that Williams does not plan on playing, although we won’t know if that’s the case until there’s a solution to the helmet issue.Interim head coach Bill Callahan said at a press conference that the team’s equipment staff is speaking to manufacturers in hopes of finding that solution.“We’re working on getting his helmet customized and fitted so that there is no issue or problem with the fit,” Callahan said.Callahan did not have a sense of how long that process will take. The team has a two-week roster exemption for Williams and they’ll have to make a call about activating him or putting him on the non-football injury list at that point. The 5 o’clock club is published several times per week during the season, and aims to provide a forum for reader-driven discussion at a time of day when there isn’t much NFL news being published. Feel free to introduce topics that interest you in the comments below.J.P. Finlay reported earlier this week that Bill Callahan had demanded full control of the Redskins roster as a pre-condition of accepting the gig as interim head coach.This report spawned a number of followup articles.Here’s an excerpt from a CBS Sports article that followed Finlay’s report by just a couple of hours:Both articles went on to cite instances of Bill Callahan’s apparent control, including the the addition of fullback Michael Burton, dramatic changes in the makeup of the practice squad, the demotion of Colt McCoy and the re-elevation of Case Keenum. The CBS article dragged out the Bill Parcell’s line about the guy cooking the food being allowed to shop for the groceries Wes Martin Jersey , but — really — does that actually apply here?After all, wasn’t Parcells talking about control over the draft and the end-of-preseason roster cuts as the really critical decisions that he wanted control over?Is it all that shocking that Bill Callahan would want, or that the Redskins would grant, total roster control for the 11 games left in the 2019 season?I mean, it’s not like they’ve turned over the 2020 draft to the guy.Still, in the case of the Redskins, there are some reasons why this move seems newsworthy.The Redskins have a history of not allowing coaches total roster control.Marty Schottenheimer was fired over the question of control.Mike Shanahan seemed frustrated by it.Jay Gruden seemed to fire off passive aggressive comments on a semi-regular basis that hinted at his frustration at his own lack of control.Bruce Allen is notorious for being unwilling to stay out of the football side of things.Most importantly Womens Bryce Love Jersey , the Redskins under Dan Snyder — and especially since 2012 — have a reported history of interference at the quarterback position.There have been reports at various times that RG3 was drafted at the insistence of the owner and over the objections of the head coach, that the owner was unhappy about the decision to select Kirk Cousins in the same draft, that the owner’s close personal relationship with RG3 undermined the coach’s authority and led to a schism with Kirk Cousins after he replaced Griffin and played well, that Gruden had to fight to play the guy he wanted (Cousins) over Griffin, who had cost a ton of draft capital and had more marquee value.Some people have suggested that Bruce Allen traded for Alex Smith without consulting anyone else, least of all Jay Gruden, and that Dan & Bruce forced the pick of Dwayne Haskins Jr. this season in the face of resistance from some personnel people and coaches https://www.theredskinslockerroom.com/authentic-terry-mclaurin-jersey , including Jay Gruden.If we’re being honest, it’s this last point — the history with quarterbacks — and the current situation where Dwayne Haskins appears unready to play at the level of a starter in the NFL, but where the Redskins franchise already has a lost season on its hands that makes this a headline-producing story.keep his job might be tempted to keep Haskins on the bench in favor of Keenum, while an executive from the front office with a longer-term view is likely to want to see the rookie on the field getting valuable experience.The remaining games of 2019 provide a type of extended and highly competitive 2020 pre-season... a chance to get a look at players on the roster who might not see the field (Dwayne Haskins) if the team were still competing for a spot in the playoffs.Wednesday saw reports surface that Callahan has already decided to start Dwayne Haskins, even if he hasn’t said so publicly.That said, in the words of J.P.
