Washington Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III will undergo total reconstructive surgery of his right knee early Wednesday morning to repair torn anterior cruciate and lateral collateral ligaments but he is expected to be ready for the opener of the 2013 NFL regular season, according to team sources familiar with the determination made by orthopedic specialist Dr. James Andrews.

The torn ACL was diagnosed late Tuesday as a complete tear of the patella graft that was used to repair Griffin's torn ACL suffered at Baylor in 2009. A team source said Dr. Andrews likely will use a patella graft from Griffin's left knee to repair the most recent tear.

Griffin's recovery is projected at six-to-eight months, barring any setbacks, sources said. The rehabilitation plan primarily will focus on strengthening Griffin's quadriceps to help protect and help stabilize the knee, according to sources. The reconstruction of the LCL is considered a complication but sources said Dr. Andrews informed the Redskins it should rehab well during the same six-to-eight month time frame as the ACL injury.

Under this projected time frame of surgery, recovery and rehab, Griffin should be able to participate at some level during training camp in August and be ready to open the season in September, according to the sources.

It was obvious in that falcons game that syneder wanted rg3 while the shanahans wanted cousins.

The fukkers could barely contain their excitement. No designed qb runs. All of sudden they became a passing team.

I keep hearing how smart rg3 is. How smart is he when he can't see this shyt?

And yet everybody says Vick has NOTHING on this guy. So why do you keep putting him into Vicks category?

Look, RG3 is RG3. You can't compare him to anybody yet. He'll be back in September. Are you doubting this?
Let the Redskins worry about his health. Everybody else should just shut the fukk up cuz how da fukk is everybody now experts on the human body?
Is Vick the only QB to get injured in the NFL? Or is he the only QB to ever get injured while scrambling?
Vick don't even get injured scrambling, its usually in the pocket when Vick gets hurt

But lets throw facts like that out the window to fake prove a point :stopitslime:

He better work on becoming a pocket passer. I hope im wrong but I dont think he gonna be the same type of QB he was. But shyt he tore up his knee in college and came back full strength so maybe he can do it again.

Im wishing for the best for the dude. He still need to get rid of them braids though
