ESPN: Robert Griffin III is a Washington Redskin (Merged-- The Everything RG3 Thread- Mocks,News, Rumors etc MET)

[frommd]

So, last night ESPN said Andrew Luck would have to apply for some sort of exemption from the NFL to participate with the Colts (aside from rookie camp) before graduation. Since RGIII already graduated, none of this applies to him, right? Meaning, he's free to hang around Ashburn and get acquainted with his teammates, playbook ,etc...

Pretty sure I heard Shanny say last night that he would be back for a mini camp next weekend and then come full time on May 14th.

Pretty cool vid of Rob traveling to Redskins park. And to see him finally arrive there, and see him walk the halls. Man, goosebumps. He looks so pumped to be here.

yup. he's going home for a week then coming back full time iirc.

I didn't realize that... that's an incredible bonus if he can sign on, train, and work with the coaches from the beginning and doesn't have to do the usual rookie sit out.

Kirk Cousins in the house! Going to be some competition at QB which is a VERY good thing!

Washington Redskins QB Robert Griffin III will wear No. 10

LANDOVER, Md. -- Washington Redskins rookie quarterback Robert Griffin III will wear jersey No. 10, which wide receiver Jabar Gaffney donned last season.

The Redskins gave Griffin the number -- which he wore at Baylor -- without him requesting to have it, according to the team. The No. 10 jerseys with Griffin's name on the back already are on sale.

Griff really enjoys touching his face for some reason.

Probably some kind of nervous thing.

[NewCliche21]

The last time that we had a real face of our franchise, he couldn't speak English (Clinton Portis).

RGIII sounds like a friggin' professor up there.
