Robert Griffin III injury update: Knee not an issue for fantasy value right now

Robert Griffin is going to play against the Chargers on Sunday. We break down the fantasy implications.

Chris Humphreys-USA TODAY Sports

Washington Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III is listed as probable to face the San Diego Chargers on Sunday. He put in a full week of practice and won't have limitations in the road game.

Griffin was taken out of Sunday’s game and it sent a scare to the football world. The fact that he put in a full week of practice should put to bed any concern of a serious problem, though, and it looks like the Skins yanked him as a precautionary measure.

Griffin was a bit of a disaster in his loss to the Broncos, completing 15-of-30 attempts for 132 yards, one score and two interceptions for a passer rating of 45.4. It was his lowest rating of the season as well as his lowest passing yardage total. This came on the heels of Griffin's terrific game against the Bears with 298 yards, two scores and 84 rushing yards.

Fantasy impact: The Chargers have done a solid job in the past two weeks, but one doesn't count since it came against the Jaguars. They did keep Andrew Luck and the Indianapolis Colts to just nine points two weeks ago, though. Griffin should still be in almost all lineups.
