*Speculation surrounding the future of Robert Griffin III as a Washington Redskin spiked again today after a letter sent to season ticket holders failed to mention his existence.
“Dear Premium Club Member,” read the letter, per The Washington Post.
“The Washington Redskins thank you for your continued loyalty and support. Redskins fans are the best in the NFL and we greatly appreciate your dedication over the years.
“Head coach Jay Gruden, new general manager Scot McCloughan, and defensive coordinator Joe Barry will lead a nucleus of Ryan Kerrigan, DeSean Jackson, plus Pro Bowlers Trent Williams and Alfred Morris. The Redskins are poised to rebound next season!”
No mention of RGIII, whom Gruden last season clearly lost faith in as Washington’s shoe-in quarterback of the future.
It’s a freefall from two years ago, when Griffin was coming off a Rookie of the Year award and touted as one of the game’s brightest young performers. Knee surgery, further injuries and skittish play under two separate coaching staffs have dimmed his future prospects.
