Robert Griffin III: 'I don't like recovery plan'

Washington Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III admits that he doesn't like the way coach Mike Shanahan is handling his recovery from injury.

Washington Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III has criticised the recovery schedule that he has been set ahead of the new season.

Griffin suffered a serious knee injury at the end of last season and is yet to return to full team training despite openly stating that he feels ready to do so.

Coach Mike Shanahan is sticking to his plan, however, and Griffin admits that the lack of flexibility in the schedule has left him feeling frustrated.

"No, I don't like it. I don't understand all of it. But [Shanahan] gave me his word. When you give your word to somebody that's all they have so I'm just banking that they will stay true to their word and I'm staying true to mine. I'm doing everything they ask me to do without any gripes," ESPN quotes Griffin as saying.

"My re-integration to the team has been fixed without any aspect of how I'm doing personally with my knee surgery and with my knee rehab. It's predetermined. That's the one thing I don't understand.

"What coach says, and he's 100% right, I don't have to understand it. I don't have to like it. If he plays me week one and I'm ready to go then I'll give him a salute and I'll play my butt off for him."

Griffin was named as the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year last season having been picked second overall in the draft.
