surgery on RGIII’s knee reveals damage to the ACL
Source says surgery on Robert Griffin III’s knee reveals damage to the ACL of the Washington Redskins QB
The Washington Redskins quarterback had surgery Wednesday morning to repair a torn lateral collateral ligament in his right knee. The procedure also examined Griffin’s ACL. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Wednesday, January 9, 2013, 11:57 L. Todd Spencer/AP Washington Redskins QB Robert Griffin III reinjures his right knee as he falls awkwardly while throwing an incomplete pass under pressure from Seattle Seahawks linebacker Malcolm Smith. WASHINGTON - A person familiar with the situation says the surgery on Robert Griffin III’s knee revealed damage to the ACL. The Washington Redskins quarterback had surgery Wednesday morning to repair a torn lateral collateral ligament in his right knee. The procedure also examined Griffin’s ACL, which he tore while playing for Baylor in 2009. Another torn ACL would complicate Griffin’s chances of returning by the start of next season. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the Redskins had not made an announcement about the latest details surrounding the rookie quarterback’s injury. Griffin sprained the LCL last month and reinjured the knee in Sunday’s playoff loss to the Seattle Seahawks. John Lok/AP A hobbled Redskins QB Robert Griffin III lies on the ground after fumbling the ball against the Seattle Seahawks during the fourth quarter of Sunday's Wild Card loss. |

I wouldn't want to be in Shanahan's shoes today.....Dan Snyder is one unhappy and very pissed off owner

Mike Shanahan has pulled this garbage before with Terrell Davis and Al Wilson. I hope he gets fined by the league.

According to reports, Shanahan started the 2012 season with his job on the line.
When Griffin injured his knee on Dec 9th, it was reported the recovery could take 4-6 weeks. Griffin was back after missing one week.

Everyone knows running quarterbacks are a disaster waiting to happen. There's a reason that NFL running backs usually have a short career.
As for pulling RG3 from the game, everyone watching that game could tell how ineffective he was, and that not only was he putting his health at risk but the Skins probably had a better chance of winning with the backup at that point. What's really funny is that when Cutler pulled himself from a game, everyone jumped on the guy and called him a pussy. But this incident makes it clear that, if you can't play, you shouldn't play. |

What if:
Cousins isn't that good, and the Skins know this, but they think they can deal him for a first rounder in the offseason. However, they don't want to play him because they know he will be exposed.

Chris Clemons of the Seahawks tore an ACL during the same game. For all of Goodell's blabbering about safety, field maintenance should be priority #1. |

they were thinking about firing the guy after using three first round picks on the qb that fits what he wants to do to a t? Posted via Mobile Device Last edited by SAUTO; 01-09-2013 at 07:15 PM.. |

This could end up being a blessing in disguise, it might end up forcing him to completely focus on being a pocket passer and stop risking himself like that.
All of that running around needed to come to a stop at some point, why not just get it out of the way now. You just cant slam your most precious commodity around like a running back. |

Yeah, the commentators literally said, before the game, that if it weren't for the green paint, you wouldn't even know it was a football field. They said it was straight up dirt.; players were slipping around everywhere during pregame warmups.
