Jets Not Interested In Trading For Robert Griffin III
WR Evan Spencer didn’t practice on Monday after suffering a concussion last Saturday at Baltimore.
So with Griffin out, Coach Gruden has put the team in the hands of Kirk Cousins, who is entering his fourth year in the league.
The QB situation in the Redskins’ camp comes as a surprise even as head coach Jay Gruden announced earlier in the 2015 offseason that Griffin would be the starting quarterback for the team.
In February, an Instagram video of Griffin singing along to Michael Jackson turned into an exchange on his image and how he uses social media.
Washington Redskins quarterback Kirk Cousins led the Washington Redskins to a 38-21 victory over the Cleveland Browns at Cleveland Browns Stadium on December. 16, 2012.
Cousins got the start against the Ravens, completing 20 of 27 passes for 190 yards, one touchdown and an interception.
Cousins becomes the second former Michigan State quarterback to be named a starter in the National Football League this season, followed by Brian Hoyer with the Houston Texans.
DeSean Jackson said he can relate to what Washington Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III is going through.
If the rumors are true, it’s hard to say what will happen to Robert Griffin III next.
The Redskins host Jacksonville in the preseason finale Thursday, but Griffin won’t be available because he still hasn’t been cleared.
“I think Kirk Cousins has got a big-time future”, Shanahan told 106.7 The Fan on August 14, via the Washington Post. Tensions between the new coaching staff and the alleged demands of the front office reached a breaking point during an August 21 preseason match against the Lions, when Gruden kept RG3 in the game behind an alarmingly sub-par offensive line.
Wide receiver Pierre Garcon said during an appearance on SiriusXM NFL Radio that Cousins has a good chance because of his leadership.
He added, “He pokes holes in his own boat all the time and it started with that all in for week one thing that was a disastrous public relations campaign”.
