Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III’s recovery has been described as “superhuman,” and he’s getting rehab advice from the highest office in the land (not Roger Goodell’s).
Now, his dad has updated us on the specifics of the recovery from knee surgery, saying his son will resume running on a field in the next week.
“He’s been running in the pool, and some on the treadmill,” Robert Griffin Jr. told Dave Sheinin of the Washington Post. “But they’re just about ready to take it out on the field.”
RG3 had surgery on Jan. 9, and the longer this goes, the more wary everyone should be. Griffin said last week he wouldn’t rush his recovery, which is smart, and harder to do when each milestone is so dutifully monitored.
