When it rains it pours
With Robert Griffin III being benched this week for Kirk Cousins, a lot of fans and media members are confused as how this decision was made. One fan took to his Instagram page to express his feelings towards the situation.
Here is the full caption:
“As a Skins Fan I’m disappointed in the way my team used this mans [sic] talent and potential to do nothing but raise hopes and make a profit. I don’t regret the skins grabbing RG, I do regret having a sorry ass team owner and sorry ass front office who couldn’t put a winning coaching staff together who could actually compete for a super bowl. Griffin does not deserve the blame or bad rap, the man has gone above and beyond since day one to the point of injury, while at the same time being a role model of a person. The Redskins let him fall and did not help him get up. No matter if he’s a starter, back up, or played for another team I will always respect and be a fan of RG3. #HTTR #Loyalty #ImpeachDanSnyder #Redskins #redskinsnation #DC #NFL @rgiii @espn @nfl”
Seems as if this is no big deal. Only if Griffin had not liked the pic.
As Uproxx’s Chris Mottram spotted, Griffin “liked” that post—the same post that heavily criticized the organization’s owner and front office. That might not be the smartest move for a player under contract with a franchise.
Griffin then took to his Instagram page to address the situation.
I just wanted to set the record straight on this one. #HTTRhttp://t.co/zcSaPIpACwpic.twitter.com/VrsXf5uSi7

It is just a matter of time for these two sides to part ways, but it seems that they are stuck with each other for a little bit longer.
