Not sure why you let this situation get in your feelings, the request was likely expected and not at all unreasonable.
Jonah has done nothing wrong, he had his agent respectfully request a trade because he thinks that is best for himself and his family. Personally, I think fans that slam a guy for that request comes across as kinda selfish.
I would love for Jonah to have attended OTAs, but it wasn't required. If Jonah comes out with disrespectful language or threatens a hold out then I have no issues with people going negative, but this projection is so petty. Multiple trade requests are made on every team, every year, we just dont see them.
I can't argue that Jonah Williams has every right to request a trade and lookout for himself - epecially in a contract year - but it was incredibly dissapointing to see that as his reaction.
It just comes across as arrogant and delusional. Every one of his co-workers has been on the "Whatever it takes" to win wagon and put aside personal things for the team. Jonah refusing to get on board is a bad look. He's a mid tier LT at best, oft injured, gave up the most sacks in the league last year.
He also refused a position switch to C at Alabama. He's looking like a tool at this stage as far as teammates go.
However, to circle back around to your point, the guy has every damn right to pursue his own interests. And I agree that when it's time to show up to work, he should in good faith do so as far as work ethic goes.
