Watching RG3 and Jay Gruden walk off the field holding hands after a huge upset over the Philadelphia Eagles on Saturday.
Gruden has been brutally tough on RG3 this season, and it may have had a positive effect on the quarterback. After weeks of questions about RG3’s future in D.C., Gruden put the speculation to rest by ensuring Griffin III’s return next season.
“Let’s finish this season out on a high note against Dallas when they come here,” Gruden told reporters after Saturday’s win. “Then after the season we will make all the necessary adjustments. It’s a great opportunity for Robert to reestablish himself as the leader of this football team – hoping he does it.”
It’s a simple process. RG3 is the face of the Redskins. Gruden’s tough love worked. Now RG3 needs to build on the momentum of these final few games, and take his game to the next level during the offseason.
