The Facts:
During his introductory press conference,
new Redskins HC Jay Gruden didn’t declare unequivocally that Griffin is the starting QB. Then again, some things don’t need to be said. Gruden said it later, during an appearance on 106.7 The Fan in D.C. “Robert Griffin III is the starter,” Gruden said. “There will be no competition.”

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
As PFT's Mike Florio suggests, it's not a surprise, but some were curious about whether a competition could occur given that Griffin was frozen out of the process of selecting a coach. Florio went on to explain that was likely more about creating the impression that Griffin doesn’t run the show and less about putting Griffin on even footing with Kirk Cousins, who recently said he assumed Griffin would be involved in the coaching search.
