Robert Griffin III Feels “Like Neo” Ducking Trees on Washington D.C. Tour Bus
Robert Griffin III has done some remarkable things on the football field, but what can he do on a Washington D.C. double-decker tour bus. It apparently makes him feel like Neo from the Matrix, as he ducks a few trees in the linked video below.
RGIII Explores His New Home from Gatorade.
This piece of RG3 footage was produced as part of the online series “Everything to Prove”, which can be found at nfl.com/everythingtoprove. In the first episode, RG3 talks about how the turning point of his career which made him dedicate himself to football was tearing his ACL; he also shows off his sock collection for those more interested in the Heisman winner’s fashion choices.
This is the second season of the show and this year it will follow 11 NFL rookies as they try to prove themselves in a league where one bad game can cost you your job. The show’s cast this year is Indianapolis Colts QB Andrew Luck, Cleveland Browns RB Trent Richardson, Minnesota Vikings OT Matt Kalil, Jacksonville Jaguars WR Justin Blackmon, Indianapolis Colts TE Dwayne Allen, Carolina Panthers LB Luke Kuechly, San Diego Chargers LB Melvin Ingram, San Francisco 49ers RB LaMichael James and Houston Texans DE Jared Crick with his teammate K Randy Bullock.
The Washington Redskins gave up a lot for Robert Griffin III, but what they got back was a potential franchise quarterback. I had the opportunity attend a group media interview with RG3 at the Gatorade High School Athlete of the Year Awards in July and he gives a phenomenal interview. He speaks from the heart and engages you with humor and by looking you in the eye. In addition to all that he is a freak athlete and hard worker; he could have been one of the best track and field athlete ever and was a Gatorade Award Winner in track and field. I think Robert Griffin III is going to surprise some people this year with the Washington Redskins; I’m not saying they will make the playoffs, but they will be one of those teams that is just tough to play every Sunday.
New episodes of “Everything to Prove” will be posted monthly, and these videos should be a fun way to track the progress of these NFL rookies.
