Report: Redskins turned down Patriots’ 2020 first-round pick for Trent Williams trade

Trent Williams

As Trent Williams future with the Washington Redskins remains increasingly in doubt and trade rumors start to pick up, Washington’s front office has reportedly already declined a huge offer from the New England Patriots.

According to TheTeam980’s Kevin Sheehan, Washington told New England its 2020 first-round pick wouldn’t be enough to land the All-Pro offensive tackle.

The report was also heard by NBCS Sports Washington’s JP Finlay, an even stronger indicator that Washington is taking a strong stance against trading Williams during his holdout from the team.

Reports of growing tension between Williams and the team came out on Aug. 8 and the situation hasn’t improved.

Williams is a seven-time Pro Bowl tackle and has started 119 games in his NFL career. The 31-year-old is reportedly seeking a new contract and wants out of Washington.

New England has shown a willingness to make big moves and if Washington changes its tune on the offer, Williams would make the Patriots an even stronger force in the NFL.
