Robert Griffin III Promises 'Answers' For ESPN Firing

Robert Griffin III said he is planning to tell all when it comes to his recent firing from ESPN.

More specifically, Griffin told followers on social that that they would have "questions answered soon" about why he and ex-NFL show host Sam Ponder were cut loose, supposedly for cost-cutting reasons.

"As I sit here with my family on this beautiful day, we are overwhelmed with the outpouring of love and support from you guys over the last past 72+ hours," Griffin wrote on X.

"YOU GUYS ARE THE ABSOLUTE BEST. Your support means everything to us, and I can't wait to connect with you all directly about everything. I'll be sitting down soon to chat with YOU, so make sure to subscribe to my YouTube channel, drop all your questions here and under my latest video and I'll be answering them soon.

"We're honored that you love the way we cover sports, tell stories, and celebrate life. As a family we try to inspire people to be their best everyday, but it's YOU who inspire us to push even harder. Let's keep this journey going together."

He then provided a link to his YouTube channel, where he says he'll discuss the topic further.

Per the New York Post:

"Griffin had been with ESPN since 2021 and his salary was in the seven-figure range, according to The Athletic's Andrew Marchand. Griffin was pulled off Monday Night Countdown in May after ESPN won a bidding war to add Jason Kelce to the network.

"Still, it was believed Griffin would continue covering college football for ESPN."

The former NFL quarterback, most known for his time with the Washington Redskins, did not reveal if he has anything else in the works.
