Robert Griffin III had an embarrassing moment during the pregame show for Saturday’s Washington-Boise State game.
Griffin was talking about how former Indiana quarterback Michael Penix Jr. made a splash last season with Washington, which was his first year with the Huskies. To emphasize the point, Griffin jumped into Lake Washington for a segment shown during the pregame show.
As RG3 jumped into the water, his pants split:

Griffin proudly shared the video via X:

That’s what happens when you try to do something athletic in pants that tight!
Penix threw for 450 yards and 5 touchdowns as Washington won easily 56-19 in their opener. Now working on his sixth college season accumulating stats, the redshirt senior Penix is a Heisman contender. Griffin, the pants splitter, is a former Heisman Trophy winner.
