The Baltimore Ravens pulled off a shocking acquisition Wednesday when they inked Robert Griffin III to a one-year deal.
We have agreed to a one-year deal with QB Robert Griffin.

The #Ravens have agreed to terms with former #Redskins and #Browns QB Robert Griffin III. He’s back.

The #Ravens nearly signed RGIII last year and maintained interest throughout. Now, they give him another chance on a 1-year deal.

Well, I never thought this would ever happen. RGIII looked like a guy who would never pick up a football again after the injuries he’s had throughout his career.
It was truly sad when his career was derailed with the Washington Redskins. The man was absolutely electric coming out of Baylor. Defenses were terrified of RGIII with the ball in his hands. Everybody thought he was bound to be a superstar, but the NFL can shift for players very quickly.
Hopefully, RGIII still has some juice in the tank to light it up with the Ravens. Nothing would be cooler than to see him get back on the field. He’s obviously never going to be what he could have been at one time, but that doesn’t mean he can’t be entertaining again.
We’ll find out in a couple months.
