As of Wednesday, the backup quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens in 2018 could potentially be Robert Griffin III. No, this is not a belated April Fool’s Day joke.
The Ravens came to terms recently with Griffin, the former first-round raft pick of the Washington Redskins and 2011 Heisman Trophy winner, to a one-year contract. For now, Griffin and Josh Woodrum are the only two other quarterbacks under contract with the Ravens besides starter Joe Flacco.
“He’s a very talented quarterback who’s had a lot of success in this league early on,” Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said during a Wednesday press conference.
