Robert Griffin III was reportedly “really sore” in the rib area late Sunday after taking a beating in the Redskins’ Week 9 loss to the Panthers. Griffin anticipates having “a rough night sleeping,” although it seems he’s avoided serious injury. The Redskins also have a Week 10 bye. The Panthers were officially credited with 13 quarterback hits in Sunday’s 21-13 Redskins loss, even if Griffin “only” absorbed four sacks. Griffin was held out of the end zone altogether and has accounted for just one touchdown in his last two games.
The offensive line will need to get better if they want their franchise quarterback to stay alive. He was getting banged up pretty bad by the Panthers defense. Players like Dwan Edwards and Luke Kuechly were all over the field for the Panthers. RG3 is the future, but it sounds like Shanahan is already throwing in the towel.
