Redskins ban media from talking to Robert Griffin III

It looks like the Washington Redskins has banned media members from talking to quarterback Robert Griffin III after he told the world on Monday that he believes he’s the best quarterback in the NFL.

New York Post NFL reporter Bart Hubbuch wasn’t very happy that he wasn’t able to speak with Griffin after Tuesday’s practice.

The Redskins are shutting off RG3’s non-gameday access “for a while” after his boast controversy. I hope the NFL and local media intervene.

Redskins agreed to let me talk to RG3, then told me after I’d come down (and just three hours before practice) about the new ban.
