Robert Griffin III tweets about Washington's need for quarterback depth

September 14, 2021 by Redskins Wire Leave a Comment

Robert Griffin III had one of the greatest individual seasons in the Washington Football Team’s franchise history.

The 2012 NFL offensive rookie of the year burst onto the scene and helped lead Washington to seven consecutive victories en route to an NFC East title in 2012. Griffin completed almost 66% of his passes for 3,200 yards with 20 touchdowns and just five interceptions. Griffin also rushed 815 yards and seven touchdowns.

Unfortunately, that would be the high point of Griffin’s career in Washington. He would spend three more seasons in Washington. He didn’t take a snap in 2015 as the third-string quarterback behind Kirk Cousins and Colt McCoy.

Griffin played one season for the Browns, sat out in 2017, and spent the last three seasons as a backup to Lamar Jackson in Baltimore. He was recently hired as an analyst at ESPN, where he’s quite good at his new gig.

Griffin has made it known he still wants to play, and if an opportunity arises, he has the freedom to pursue that opportunity.

On Monday, after it was announced Washington had placed starting quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick on injured reserve, Griffin sent out the following tweet:

Is Griffin interested in a possible reunion with Washington, or is he just messing with fans?

Washington is happy with Taylor Heinicke and Kyle Allen — for now. Even if Washington added another veteran quarterback to the roster, it’s doubtful Griffin would be that guy.

At least Griffin was having some fun on Twitter, and several Washington fans responded positively to his tweet.

For many Washington fans, that 2012 season is forever etched in their minds as one of the most enjoyable in the last 30 years.
