Amid questions about whether Robert Griffin III really suffered a concussion last week comes word tonight that not only is Washington saying Griffin did suffer a concussion, but that he still hasn’t been cleared to play in this week’s preseason game.
In a statement issued by the team and attributed to NFL independent neurologist Robert N. Kurtzke, it was revealed that Griffin can’t play yet.
“Per 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,” the statement said.
