Sources close to RG3 say his clearance from the concussion is still entirely up to the league protocol – and soonest he’ll see dr is Friday.

Because Redskins will begin preparation for Week 1 against Dolphins this week, team felt the need to make the call on Week 1 starter today.

So yes, this is all conveniently/inconveniently matching with internal talks about RG3 future, but it amazingly is just headlines colliding.
