Robert Griffin III’s injury problems continue.

The Cleveland Browns quarterback left Saturday’s game against San Diego with about ten minutes left in the fourth and was diagnosed with a concussion.

Griffin will not return, and with only one game left in the season, we probably won’t see him again before next year.

Griffin had been 17-25 for 164 yards prior to departing with the injury. There was some consideration to benching him for this one, so Kessler will have a chance to do something in the remainder of the game and probably in Week 17 as well.
