Baltimore Ravens safety Earl Thomas and defensive end Brandon Williams were involved in a heated locker room exchange after the team's loss to the Cleveland Browns, but it seems they have both moved on.
Reports came out that the exchange was because Thomas was frustrated that Williams didn't play in the game. Williams was a late addition to the injury report and Thomas said it caught him off guard that he wasn't able to play.
“We’re on the same page. We talked about it. I just want him out there,” Earl Thomas said, via Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com. “He’s a Pro Bowler. We’re better when he’s out there. I was a little frustrated. I just wanted to see what was going on with him because I know he had practiced earlier in the week. I didn’t know. It just kind of hit me out of the blindside. But hopefully, he’ll play this week.”
Thomas was frustrated with Williams but there were also some upset with the former All-Pro. During Nick Chubb's long touchdown run, Thomas pulled up and according to Ravens coach John Harbaugh, the reason was that Thomas felt his hamstring tighten up.
“If that’s what he said about his hamstrings — he was a good bit behind Chubb in that situation, as I watched the tape — he wasn’t going to catch him,” Harbuagh said via Pro Football Talk.
Even if that was the case it didn't look good that their new highly paid star wasn't giving full effort on the field.
