Robert Griffin III sends curious tweet after not being cleared to play

Robert Griffin knee braceRobert Griffin III raised eyebrows with a curious tweet he sent after the Washington Redskins reversed course and announced they would be holding the quarterback out 1-2 weeks because of a concussion.

RG3 tweeted some guiding words that would help him during the tough time:

Trusting in God even when I don't understand why certain things happen. James 1:2-3 (NLT)

— Robert Griffin III (@RGIII) August 28, 2015

The passage he cited — James 1:2-3 (NLT) says:

“Dear brothers and sisters,[a] when troubles of any kind come your way, consider it an opportunity for great joy. 3 For you know that when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow.”

Griffin is going through a difficult period in Washington. He was beat up last week against the Detroit Lions and suffered a concussion. Then after the Redskins cleared him Thursday to play in Saturday’s game, they changed their decision a day later and announced the QB would miss 1-2 weeks. If Griffin cannot figure out what the Redskins are doing with him, he’s not alone.
