Robert Griffin III held his first media availability session of training camp Wednesday, one day before he and his Redskins teammates officially begin practice in Richmond.
Among the highlights: Griffin said that the team's plan is for him not to play at all during the preseason "unless it's a necessity."
“I don’t think the preseason actually matters that much when it comes to that,” Griffin told reporters. “I think if you talk to a lot of the vets, they don’t even like the preseason. I think you get that timing, those reps, in practice, and that’s what I’m going to get later in the preseason, so I look forward to that.”
RGIII also said that he passed his conditioning test and furthered explained what he meant by coaches "easing" him into practices, noting that he will take part in walk-throughs and 7-on-7 drills, but not 11-on-11 team drills.
More to come.
