Robert Griffin III took so many hits early in Washington's second preseason game that it almost felt inevitable he would leave because of injury. Sadly,Adidas Yeezy Boost 350 Espa?a, that's just what happened. Griffin left Thursday's 21-17 win over the Detroit Lions early in the second quarter after suffering a concussion and a shoulder stinger. Coach Jay Gruden confirmed the concussion after the game,Stephen Curry Shoes Uk, saying the quarterback would undergo concussion protocol.
