RG3 does in fact have a concussion; It is not severe, but players want to know why he was still out there
If you watched the game last night between the Washington Redskins and Detroit Lions, you would have known that RG3 should not have been out there still taking reps. Griffin was getting lit up like a lamp, and maybe that is because of his comments saying he was the best in the league the other day, but one of his teammates even questioned the call.
The first three series, Griffin was hit five times and sacked twice. Left tackle Trent Williams wasn’t playing, first-round pick Brandon Scherff was getting worked over and the entire O-line was just a hot mess.
“How do you keep sending him out there?” the player said. With Trent not out there, with the other guys struggling, you pull [RG3] there,” he said. “No question.”
I have to agree with the player who remains anonymous. This is a horrible situation.
Source says RGIII’s concussion isn’t believe to be severe and it’s possible he could play next week against Baltimore.
