According to Washington Redskins offensive lineman, Trent Williams, an official at this past Sunday's game on November 17th, 2013 insulted him. The Redskins ended up losing to the Philadelphia Eagles 24-16 in a thrilling comeback. If Williams' claims are true, at least one of the officials will be getting repremanded. Williams claimed an NFL official called him "fat a** garbage" during the game. Following the game the offensive lineman was heated in the locker room due to frustration. He told reporters "refs were getting in their heads..They were unprofessional. Garbage a** disrespectful mother f***... I'm at a lost for words". Apparently Williams said you can read the refs lips on the game tape and that some of the interior linemen were wearing microphones so the team can get sound of the refs if they did. This in my mind is completely wrong if this referee did indeed call Williams with use of inappropriate language.
This was definitely inappropriate. I am a referee and I know if I would have said anything like that, I would have gotten fired immediately. This ref is definitely going to get fired for sure.
