The Allen Robinson issue doesn't seem like it's going away for the Chicago Bears. Their star wide receiver made that abundantly clear when he lit off a social media firestorm by removing all Bears-related photos and mentions from his Instagram and Twitter pages. People are left wondering what all of this means. Does Robinson want out? Are the Bears intent on moving on?
The lack of clarity has proven maddening. Thankfully, insider Tom Pelissero brought some during a recent update on NFL Total Access. He revealed that the move was a message from Robinson regarding his irritation at how the contract talks have gone thus far.
"Bears wide receiver Allen Robinson has grown frustrated with the state of talks on a contract extension with the team. He removed all the stuff from his social media today. Photos of himself in a Bears uniform. The team name. He feels like he has been disrespected and the Bears offers to this point have not reflected his fair market value."Pelissero went on to explain that the situation hasn't resulted in a major breaking off of contact. It's more of a money issue the two sides have yet to work out. Robinson isn't giving the team an ultimatum at this point.
"This one with Allen Robinson to this point has proven more challenging. As of now I can tell you there is no trade request from Allen Robinson."[video width="1280" height="720" mp4="https://www.sportsmockery.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/Bears-WR-Allen-Robinson-has-removed-references-to-the-team-from-his-social-media-a-reflection-of.mp4"][/video]
