Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback Robert Griffin III‘s tenure with the Washington Redskins is over.
Team President Bruce Allen said that much during an interview on The Mighty 1090 in San Diego on Tuesday.
This means RGIII is now officially a free agent, and his next move is a fork in the road. Allen also stated that the QB will be able to choose from a few different teams.
“I see Robert getting an opportunity with another team,” Allen said. “We’ve heard from some teams that are interested. I think he’s going to have a choice of a couple teams that will let him excel in the future.”

Griffin was the No. 2 overall draft pick in 2012 and hasn’t started a single game since the 2014 season finale. He will officially become a free agent on March 9.
Allen did not say which specific teams are interested in the QB, although according to Troy Aikman, he could be headed to the Dallas Cowboys, Aikman’s former team.
Finally, Allen added that RGIII will be an appealing free agent for virtually any team because of his personality.
“From the very beginning Robert has handled himself as a professional,” Allen said. “He’s been a good teammate and a good guy. I know some people on the outside always like to be critical, but his teammates like him, his coaches like him and he does have some special talents. We wish him well.”
