Robert Griffin III apologizes after using anti-black slur on National Television
Robert Griffin III slipped up on National television using an anti-black slur but quickly responded with an apology.
The former first round pick was talking about Jalen Hurts on how he has proved everyone wrong, but he slipped up when making his statement on National TV. He actually used an anti-black slur word, and then quickly apologized after realizing what he said.
“People said that Jalen Hurts couldn’t get it done. He could not break from the pocket. He’s not the quarterback of the future. I think he proved all those jiggaboos wrong,” Griffin said

RG3 quickly took to Twitter to apologize and say he slipped up.
Yooooo, Definitely need to clarify this. THIS IS NOT WHAT I MEANT TO SAY. Was trying to say “those Bug-A-Boos” in reference to haters and doubters. Regardless of my intention, I understand the historical context of the term that came out of my mouth and I apologize. https://t.co/Dy4vVuiginpic.twitter.com/DL0lqcz0jK
