Concussion timeline creates some doubt about RG3 in the opener

At this stage, assuming there’s anything logical or normal about the Washington quarterback situation would be a mistake.

But with every passing day, it gets stranger and stranger.

Tonight’s statement from an independent neurologist that Robert Griffin III wasn’t actually cleared to play because of the thing that he wouldn’t acknowledge as a concussion, was weird enough on its own merits.

But as pointed out by Rich Tandler of CSNMidAtlantic.com, the one- to two-week period mentioned by the doctor today could easily put the regular season opener in jeopardy.
