“I’m fine. I’ll be ready to go,” Griffin said after the game via The Washington Post. “No one is ever going to question the fight I have inside myself to be the greatest and to help this team to victory. It doesn’t matter what it is, I will make sure that I continue to help my team win games and that it starts right after the bye.”
Griffin took several hard shots Sunday and was sacked four times. On a fourth quarter run Griffin went airborne and was sandwiched by two Panthers players.
Griffin will have an extra week to rest his sore ribs as the Redskins have a bye.
