RG3 suffers knee injury late in game

[bula]

"Last year's Heisman Trophy winner was helped off the field after being landed on by Ravens defensive tackle Haloti Ngata at the end of a 13-yard scramble. Griffin returned to the game for four plays, then dropped to the turf on his knees and left again."

Looks like a torn ligament but MRI will need to confirm.

Link?

The skins are done, sorry it had to end that way for them.

[Ultra Warrior]

Thought they said he sprained his knee? WHO is reporting this?

[cbow44]

WOW, what a shame.

[jgboys1]

Wow that would kill the readskins.

[Gameover]

No dropoff with Cousins.

[SkinsFan82]

Yeah, where are you seeing this?

Shanahan confirmed after the game that RG3 asked to come back in the game a second time but they didn't want to risk it so they put him in a brace.

I read it was just a sprain, but I guess all injuries are called sprains until MRI?

[DIAF]

Wishful thinking from the OP perhaps?

There's a huge dropoff with Cousins. Can Cousins do the things RG3 can especially with that read option.

[Lodeus]

If he is out for more than a game then the league should just cancel the rest of the season.

Potentially. Cousins is a very calm pocket passer. However, teams now wont have to worry about defending such an unconventional offense w/out Griffin.

This means absolutely nothing. Most players ask to come back into the game but notice he DIDN'T. Wait to the MRI to see what really happened.

Last i read, it was only a sprain and RG3 even wanted to come back to the field a 2nd time.
