Ashburn, Va. (AP) – Robert Griffin III was noticeably more relaxed when he reported for the Washington Redskins voluntary workouts.
Maybe it has something to do with him being named Washington’s starting quarterback, or that he became a father since the season ended. Or it could be a little of both.
Griffin said Tuesday he was ”happy” coach Jay Gruden named him the starter in February after announcing following the season finale that there would be competition at the position.
The quarterback says he is looking forward to creating ”the culture change that we know that we need to have.”
The Redskins have finished last in the NFC East the past two seasons and Griffin has struggled since January 2013 knee surgery.
Gruden says Griffin just has to ”put practice after practice together and show the consistency that we’re looking for.”
