The Washington Redskins are a mess, their franchise quarterback is a shell of his former Baylor self, and the head coach who was once considered an offensive guru, is now considered “incompetent.”
After Saturday night’s game, in which Kirk Cousins started reports suggested that RG3 was done in D.C., Gruden spoke about all the confusion going on in the Nations capital.
“We’re all as confused as you are, and people have to understand this has nothing to do with the Redskins. I know people want to make it out that we’re incompetent but we’re not. This has nothing to do with us. It was totally independent doctor, a verbal thing he said with our doctor, and then all of a sudden the written statement was different, the written report was different so we followed proper course and did what we thought was right for Robert,” Gruden said.
Gruden seems to still be in some sense of denial, telling reporters that the Redskins didn’t have a quarterback controversy.
I’m not going to announce anything. There’s no controversy,” Gruden said. “As far as who’s starting at every position, we’re going to evaluate that as a staff. I’m not going to make any announcements right now, that’s for sure.”
The incompetent claims come from Gruden still being unable to name a starter.
