Howard Eskin ‏@howardeskin Sources tell me RG3's dr, James Andrews, has recommended to #redskins that Griffin not play until after bye wk. Wash bye is week 5.

I think he should start Week 1, and I believe he will. But if Shanahan chose to sit him, I wouldn't mind that at all. The first four games are Philadelphia, Green Bay, Oakland, and Detroit; all games we could win even with Cousins starting.

If You have questions about TC players ask away and I will give you my opinion.

Who's looked the best returning kick-offs? Also, how's Helu doing?

Edit: I forgot to ask about Marvin Burdette. Has he shown anything worth mentioning?

I saw Moss, Thompson, Dawson, Crawford to name a few working on formations no contact so I couldn't really say.

Burdette can't really say remember seeing his jersey but dont remember a bad or good play.

Forgot to type this London Fletcher looks good got 2 INT over the middle, on one of them he pulled from the WR's hands (I believe Dawson).

Eskin is wrong, no such recommendation

[MTK]

Oh great, just wait til all the mouth breathers in the media get a hold of that nugget by Eskin

Better off listening to these guys...

Say what you want about Shanahan, but I'd be surprised if he went that much against a Dr's recommendation in this case, esp w/RG3.

Mike Jones ‏@MikeJonesWaPo 15m
Shanahan has been ultra cautious, even holding RGIII back slower than Andrews recommended. He wouldn't ignore doc on return date.

John Keim ‏@john_keim 14m
at each step since surgery, Shanahan has been the more conservative of this trio.

Let me be latest to add a "Not true" from a #Redskins official re: report stating Dr. Andrews recommended RG3 sit out until bye

Grant Paulsen ‏@granthpaulsen 24m
Source tells me that the report that James Andrews told the #Redskins to sit Robert Griffin until after the bye week is erroneous.

Thanks for that in depth twitter search Matty. Nice research. Who is this Erslin guy anyway?

[Meks]

I can't stand Eskin... wow

[12thMan]

I'm glad the DC reporters shut down Eskin's lying ass quickly.

[Green Monk Machine]

A week 5 return is troubling to hear. I really hope Kirk continues to play solid in games 2 and 3.
All the more reason to lean toward caution and sensibility- let Kirk carry the offseason/preseason momentum into week 1. Rob's determination to get healthy seems to have gotten his body healthy enough to play in 4 weeks by week 2.
I'd say that's as fair a compromise for all involved.

[CultBrennan59]

Eskins just doing that to get more followers.

[skinsfaninok]

This Griffin shit apparently will never and. Smh

[Evilgrin]

I don't like Mike Wise, but he drilled Florio good a few years ago on the radio. He reminds of a terrible version of Pete Vecsey...

[That Guy]

well, this rgiii whining is still better than the pat white is our next future HoF QB crap we would have had if RG3 wasn't here.

so i can live with it, the alternative could be a lot worse.
