Jay Gruden: RGIII clearance mix up not on Redskins
After Washington Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III was first cleared to play and then not cleared to play against the Baltimore Ravens, the Redskins were criticized heavily for a myriad of reasons surrounding the decision not play him.

However, when head coach Jay Gruden spoke to the media after his teams’ 31-13 win over the Baltimore Ravens he stated that the mix up for RGIII was not on the Redskins.
