Yes, Robert Griffin III’s project for a survival book in Washington is not.
In a statement issued by his broadcasting agent, Mark Lepselter, Giffin confirmed that he would not publish information about his time with the franchise, currently known as Commanders.
“Through the process of thinking about writing a book, I learned that this is a problem bigger than one person,” Griffin said. “I want to give space and elevate those who have already spoken out, while encouraging those who have not yet felt empowered to speak. This is an issue that many skilled people continue to deal with sensitivity and seriousness, and I eventually learned that this book is not the right forum for that. In time and through a more meaningful method, I hope to turn to my first-hand experience. “
Lepselter confirmed to PFT that the book project is indeed dead. I asked Lepsselter if there was direct or indirect pressure from the commanders, the owner Daniel Snyder, the NFL and / or ESPN.
“Simply put,” Lepselter said, “it’s not.” Unequivocally, the answer is no. “
Griffin’s statement shows that he will eventually tell the truth about his time with the team. However, this will not happen in the front and back covers of a book.
