Robert Griffin III Fantasy Stats

Free-agent quarterback Robert Griffin III has quickly embraced his new role as a broadcaster after playing eight seasons in the NFL, but he hasn't shut the door on a potential return to football. "I am ready to go right now. I train every day. I throw and work out. I know what it takes to get my body ready and I am doing those things. Yes, it is a little bit tougher when you are flying around everywhere doing stuff for TV, but when you really want something, you make it work. So, if I get that call this year, next year, or five years from now I will be ready to play," Griffin said. The 32-year-old last played in the NFL in 2020 with the Baltimore Ravens, and it's probably a long shot that he'll return to an NFL roster since his commentating gig is going so well.

The Baltimore Ravens waived quarterback Robert Griffin III, defensive back Davontae Harris, wide receiver De'Anthony Harris and defensive back Tramon Williams on Monday. Griffin played in four games in his third season with the Ravens and made a start in place of Lamar Jackson after he contracted COVID-19 in the Week 12 loss to the Steelers. RG3 went just 7-for-12 for 33 yards and an interception in that start, also running the ball seven times for an additional 20 yards. The No. 2 overall pick might've played in his last NFL game, but he could also return to the Ravens if he goes unclaimed on waiver. The 30-year-old started just two games in three years for Baltimore and declined after he was named a Pro Bowler in his rookie season with Washington.

The Baltimore Ravens activated rookie running back J.K. Dobbins, linebacker Pernell McPhee and centers Patrick Mekari and Matt Skura from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday while placing quarterback Robert Griffin III (hamstring) on Injured Reserve in a corresponding move. Cornerback Anthony Averett and wide receiver Chris Moore were also activated from IR. Dobbins missed Week 12 but should return as the lead back in Week 13 against the Cowboys on Tuesday and will be an upside RB2 for fantasy managers hoping to get into the fantasy playoffs. Dallas is also allowing the fifth-most fantasy points to RBs. Griffin was forgettable on Wednesday against Pittsburgh and will now miss at least the next three games. If Lamar Jackson doesn't get cleared from the COVID-19 protocols this weekend, Trace McSorley would start under center against the Cowboys.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Robert Griffin III (leg) was replaced in the fourth quarter of Wednesday's loss to the Steelers by Trace McSorley, and Griffin's leg was wrapped on the sideline after he appeared to tweak his hamstring on a run earlier in the game. The former second overall pick by Washington was just 7-for-12 for 33 yards and a pick-six against Pittsburgh before leaving the game, also adding 68 rushing yards on seven carries. Griffin predictably struggles against one of the toughest defenses in the league in place of Lamar Jackson, who tested positive for COVID-19 last week. It's unknown if Jackson will be able to return in time for Week 13's contest against the Cowboys, but if he can't and Griffin remains out, it would be McSorley making his first career start. Baltimore desperately needs last year's MVP back under center.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Robert Griffin III, the backup to reigning 2019 MVP Lamar Jackson, still hopes to be a starting QB in the NFL again. Griffin appeared in seven games last year, the most he's played in a single season since 2014, but most of the action he saw was late in games in which the Ravens were substantially ahead of their opponents. "I'm 30 years old. Quarterbacks are playing into their 40s now. There's a lot of time left to still go achieve all the dreams and goals I set for myself," Griffin said. The former No. 2 overall pick earned Rookie of the Year honors in 2012, but he's never started a full 16-game season. He hasn't been a full-time starter since 2016 and hasn't regained his rookie form due to injuries. Griffin is headed into the final year of his contract with Baltimore, so there's a chance he lands elsewhere with a shot at a starting gig. Unless Jackson is injured, RG3 won't have any fantasy significance.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Robert Griffin III and Oakland Raiders offensive guard Gabe Jackson have both been discussed in trade talks with the start of the new league year approaching, according to sources. Jackson is due $9.6 million and Griffin is due $2 million for the 2020 season. Both contracts are not guaranteed and are tradable. Jackson's big contract makes him unlikely to be dealt, but RG3 is definitely a possibility to a team looking for an upgrade at the backup QB position.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Robert Griffin III completed 11 of 21 passes for 98 yards and an interception in Week 17's win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. Griffin added 50 yards on the ground on eight attempts. Baltimore was successful in moving the ball on the ground and showed the league that its offense can operate efficiently even without key players Lamar Jackson and Mark Ingram on the field. Griffin has proven his ability to lead the team to victory in Lamar Jackson's stead, but Jackson will resume action as the starter in the postseason.

Baltimore Ravens backup quarterback Robert Griffin III (thumb) is on scheduled to be ready for Week 1, according to head coach John Harbaugh. Griffin injured his right thumb early in training camp and hasn't played in any preseason games. As long as Lamar Jackson stays healthy, which is a big if considering his propensity to scramble, RG3 will be holding the clipboard on game day. He'll only have fantasy intrigue in two-QB leagues if Jackson goes down with an injury.

Baltimore Ravens backup quarterback Robert Griffin III (thumb) suffered a hairline fracture to his right thumb when he banged it on the helmet of outside linebacker Tim Williams during practice on Saturday. RG3 went for an X-ray after practice, and the tests revealed the damage. He is expected to be sidelined four to eight weeks, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter. The team is expected to sign another quarterback, as they have only starter Lamar Jackson and sixth-round draft pick Trace McSorley in camp in addition to RG3.

The Baltimore Ravens re-signed quarterback Robert Griffin III this offseason, and he is very happy to stick with the organization. He has a desire to be a starter again in the NFL, but is behind Lamar Jackson on the depth chart. However, he sat down with offensive coordinator Greg Roman and quarterbacks coach James Urban during the offseason to discuss his future and how the new offense will fit RG3's skillset. "It meant a lot for them to sit down and have that talk with me," Griffin said. "I haven't had a talk with anyone like that in a long, long time." Griffin is just one hard hit and injury of Jackson away from being back under center as a starter, but he has no fantasy appeal at this point.
