With the talk of the QAnon / Trumpers on the team, I do wonder if that's what the issue is. I'm sure that sort of conspiracy BS would get really old really fast in a locker room, and those sort of people aren't exactly quiet or subtle with their beliefs either.

If so, then it coming from their 2 mainstays in Werenski and Jones has got to be especially problematic.

I spotted this posted in a Portzline Q&A the other day. I wasn't going to bring it over here because I don't know how valid it is. Portzline confirms that it is a theory that he's heard before.

No, because of their politics. Twitter activity just confirms it but that’s not living with it. Zach retweets Trump, Jr. for God’s sake. Jody Shelley follows OAN, Melania and Newsmax. Seth follows Candace effing Owens. Gerbe , Dubinsky... Someone else follows Eric Trump? How deep does it go and how much nonsense would he have to hear before not wanting to be around it? Look at guys on other teams. Either they don’t subscribe to that stuff or they’re better at hiding it. Just a possible explanation is all I’m saying, and it would answer a lot of Qs.

@John M. Wow. There is no indication that anybody's political affiliation has led to a trade request, but you're not the only person who has brought this up.
