I agree with this. Truthfully i would have no problem with him sitting this week to get his health in order. But if he is cleared to play by the docs then he will play. He was more than willing to go back in the game last week so i dont see him not playing if he has been cleared.

He was drafted to be a football player sure, but we didn't draft him to burn him up and throw him away in one season either. But for some people he's like a new toy and they can't get enough.

all i am saying is IF he is healthy enough we need to play him . . . a lot of people are calling for him to get the week off regardless of the status of his knee, like they were with the concussion . . . if his knee is healthy enough and the risk of worsening the injury is low, then we NEED him on the field . . . THIS WEEK is a big game!!

Correct. BUT, only if the risk of re-injuring or worsening is low. RGIII will play if he can. It is just part of who he is. He will bug this staff until they give in, if he feels he can go.

Robert Griffin III is on the field for practice. Did leg lifts, stretches and shuffle steps. #Redskins #RedskinsTalk

I don't know to what extent @RGIII will participate in team drills (can't watch that) but I'm shocked by how much he's able to do.#Redskins

Should be noted that there was no brace on the outside of his sweat pants. #RedskinsTalk #Redskins

RG3 is a freak!
