RG3: I won’t apologize for “best quarterback” comment

Washington quarterback Robert Griffin III created plenty of headlines this week when he said, “I feel like I’m the best quarterback in the league, and I have to go out and show that.” Despite criticism from some quarters, Griffin is not backing down.

Addressing reporters today, Griffin said he sees nothing wrong with what he said.

“I don’t apologize for what I said,” Griffin said, via Bart Hubbuch of the New York Post.

According to Hubbuch, Washington’s P.R. department initially canceled plans for Griffin to speak to reporters today, and only allowed Griffin to address the media after he lobbied them to allow him to talk.
