NFL Notes: Robert Griffin III, Andy Levitre, Giants, & Redskins

Robert Griffin III

The Redskins released a statement from an NFL independent neurologist Friday explaining that QBย Robert Griffin III won’t play in their third preseason game.

โ€œPer discussion with Neuropsychologists and with Anthony Casolaro M.D., we had anticipated yesterday that the patient would be cleared for full participation in gameplay this weekend; however, upon further scrutiny today of the neuropsychology data, I agree with the neuropsychologist that he should be held from gameplay this weekend and be retested in one-two weeks before a firm conclusion to return to gameplay can be made.โ€

Andy Levitre

  • Jason Cole mentions that it appears likely veteran G Andy Levitre won’t be back with the Titans.
  • Assuming he ends up being available, Cole believes the Dolphins and Eagles could both have interest.

Giants

  • Jordan Raanan mentions that it’s hard to see the Giants keeping S Natย Berhe if he has to miss first quarter or more of season.

Redskins

  • Jason Cole mentions that if Robert Griffin III isn’t ready to play in Week 1, Colt McCoy is the most likely option to be their starter in the opener.
  • According to Cole, HC Jay Gruden isn’t a fan of Kirk Cousins at this point in time.
  • However, Daniel Jeremiah has heard just the opposite from his sources.
