Robert Griffin III Ready to Move on From Washington?

It has not been a great stay for Robert Griffin III in Washington. He started off with a bang and led the team to a playoff berth that ended with him blowing his knee out. It has been straight down hill ever since. He's gone from being D.C.'s favorite son to one of the most ridiculed players in the NFL today.

Should the Redskins decided they don't want to secure his services through the 2016 season and allow him to test the open market after next season he's okay with that.

If the Redskins are going to exercise the fifth year option on his contract they will need to do so by May 3. If they decide not to it isn't going to bother him:
“I wouldn’t be bummed,” Griffin said. “Either way, we’re going out there to prove it this upcoming year — not next year. I just want to win. I want to win games and have fun doing it. The rest will take care of itself. They can pick up the option — or they can decide not to pick up the option. It’ll work out either way. I’m focused on this year.”
Should Washington decide to let him test the market he will find a suitor or two willing to give him another shot. It will likely be on a one-year (maybe two) prove yourself kind of deal, but that should not be too hard if he holds out for the right team.

Washington has not given him much to work with. Their offensive line is not that great either. Should he hold out for a team that can provide him with at least one of those two things his chances will not be half-bad.

Anything would be better than where he is.
