Redskins name Colt McCoy the back-up quarterback over RG3
NFL Media’s Jeff Darlington reports that Colt McCoy will be listed as the Redskins’ No. 2 quarterback tomorrow behind starter Kirk Cousins.
This is a slap in the face to their former first round pick Robert Griffin III. The Redskins are paying RG3 16 million to ride the bench. That is a huge amount to a third string quarterback. The team might want to cut him at this point if they cannot find a suitor.
McCoy prepared for the backup job for the past two weeks while the team was game planning for the Miami Dolphins, per Darlington.
