With Alex Smith, Redskins move on from class of 2012 QB drama
The Washington Redskins will enter the 2018 season in an unusual position, one nearly six years in the making: With almost no drama or hype at quarterback. They don't have a former Heisman Trophy winner turned rookie of the year coming off knee surgery. There's no storyline about career revivals under a new coach. Or quarterback competition. Or a quarterback playing for a new contract. Again. And again. And again.
Nope. With Robert Griffin III and Kirk Cousins now out of Washington the Redskins will move on from 2012, a class that produced two quarterbacks who helped win two division titles, a level of hope for the future and also years of drama that exhausted a fan base.
