\"trentThe Washington Redskins and their star player Trent Williams<\/a> have been at loggerheads for quite a few months now and there were a number of rumours floating around as to what the real problem was. <\/p>\n

Williams started his NFL career with the Redskins who recently fired their head coach<\/a> and has spent the last nine seasons playing for them.<\/p>\n

However, tensions between the two sides forced Williams to ask to be traded but the Redskins did not oblige which made things worse between the two. One of the rumours floating around was that Williams wasn\u2019t in the best of health.<\/p>\n

Trent Williams met with the media and finally shared his side of the story. He stated that nearly 6 years ago he had a small growth on his head which he reported Redskin\u2019s medical staff. <\/p>\n

He continued to play over the years but the growth never went away nor was there any proper diagnosis given.<\/p>\n

The Redskins medical staff grew more concerned during the offseason and asked Williams to have it checked out at one of their affiliated hospitals. The doctors at INOVA hospital were the ones who discovered that the growth was a rare cancer. The medical term for it is \u2018Dermatofibrosarcoma Protuberans<\/a>\u2019 (DFSP) and it was serious enough that the doctors had to operate immediately. They advised Williams to get his affairs in order in case he did not make it and the news really shook up the 31 year old.<\/p>\n
