Former Copperas Cove High Star Robert Griffin III Is Back In NFL

Former Copperas Cove High and Baylor star Robert Griffin III has been out of football since 2016, but he's back after signing a one year deal with the Baltimore Ravens according to ESPN.

Griffin was the 2nd overall pick in the 2012 NFL Draft by the Washington Redskins, but injuries hampered a promising start in which he made the Pro Bowl and the All-Rookie Team. He was cut by the Redskins in 2016, then signed with the Cleveland Browns before more injuries caused him to be cut by them after 5 games.

Griffin III is expected to backup starting quarterback Joe Flacco.
