Griffin and Gruden Clash on Social Media Over Coaching Criticism

Former Washington Commanders quarterback Robert Griffin III accuses ex-coach Jay Gruden of being unprepared to coach him, sparking a public argument on social media platform X.

Former Washington Commanders head coach Jay Gruden and former quarterback Robert Griffin III engaged in a public spat on social media platform X, with Griffin accusing Gruden of being unprepared to coach a quarterback with his skill set.
Gruden had initially commented on the Philadelphia Eagles' loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, apologizing if he ever put a quarterback through a similar situation, which Griffin took as a personal slight.
Griffin, who played under Gruden in 2014, claimed that Gruden had admitted to him that he didn't know how to coach a quarterback who could both throw and run.
Gruden responded by apologizing and admitting that his staff wasn't good enough, but also questioned Griffin's preparation.
Gruden and Griffin's relationship was strained during their time together in Washington, with Griffin being benched for Kirk Cousins after suffering a dislocated ankle early in the season.
