Robert Griffin III returns to Redskins' practice - Yahoo! Sports: "ASHBURN, Va. (AP) -- There was a major sigh of relief at Redskins Park Wednesday when Washington rookie quarterback Robert Griffin III practiced and showed no effects from a mild concussion. Barring any unexpected setbacks between now and Sunday, Griffin will start against the visiting Minnesota Vikings.
''It's a serious issue, but I felt fine when I left the locker room'' after being injured in Sunday's game against Atlanta, Griffin said. ''I went home, watched some TV and kinda just relaxed. I haven't had any symptoms at all. Practice went good. I felt sharp. I felt good. No symptoms of a concussion: no dizziness or (feeling) off-balance. I feel right today. We'll see what happens come Sunday.''
Against the Falcons, Griffin was hit by Atlanta linebacker Sean Witherspoon while scrambling on third-and-goal in a 7-7 game, which the Redskins' lost 24-17.
Griffin, who did some cardio work and some throwing on Tuesday and will get evaluated every day before he's cleared for full contact, joked that his only symptom is ''irritability'' from continually being asked the same questions by the Redskins' medical staff to see how he's doing."
