Robert Griffin III led Washington to a win wearing a knee brace last week and was back in the brace for Sunday's playoff game against the Seahawks. He appeared to aggravate his injury in the first quarter, but stayed in the game until he re-injured the knee late in the fourth quarter. But should Griffin have even been in the game at that point? Current and former NFL players took to Twitter, expressing their concern.
Felt bad for RG3 today that did not look good think the skins should've took him out after being up 14 nothing

I would love to see a McNabb tweet about this RGIII situation::: "Told you so"

Man definitely praying for RGIII. That didn't look good at all. I know we want warriors but he'd been struggling all game!

- Bizknuckle: "Repeat after me, everyone in Washington:
'THIS is why you ALWAYS listen to Dr. James Andrews.'" - HURTemHIZZY: "This situation was horribly managed. The organization should be ashamed."
- KelsieCicalla: "Why was he even playing after the first time he aggravated it today ? Dumb coaching"
- Ba-zing: "Dr. Andrews never authorized RGIII to play and Shanahan never asked him. This is 100% percent on Shanahan..."
- cwwilke: "Why would you risk the franchise on 1 game?"
- pyanchura: "I couldn't believe they kept him in after he was limping all over the place. This is their future they're playing around with"
