Kirk Cousins Could Start for Washington in Week 1, Per ESPN Report

Kirk Cousins is on track to start for Washington Week 1 vs. Miami on Sept. 13 according to a report from ESPN’s Dianna Marie Russini Saturday morning:

Sources say the plan is not only to start Kirk Cousins tonight in Baltimore, but also week 1 against Miami.

The status of Robert Griffin III is in doubt after he left last week’s preseason game vs. Detroit. On Thursday there were reports he’d been cleared by an independent neurologist to play tonight vs. Baltimore, but the team issued a statement later in the day that Griffin III needed to be reevaluated in 1-2 weeks and would be held out of the preseason game, casting a doubt on his status going forward.

Griffin tweeted this later on Friday night.

Trusting in God even when I don't understand why certain things happen.

Meanwhile NFL Network’s Albert Breer says a decision hasn’t been made for the regular season:

Source reiterated Redskins' decision to sit Robert Griffin III tonight is health-related. No final call yet on who starts at QB in Week 1.

Perhaps this Friday night tweet from Russini is the best summation of Washington’s quarterback situation:

Redskins players haven't been told RG3 won't play, despite team press release to media. A player texted me "who is starting tomorrow?"

Stay tuned.
