Former ESPN college football and NFL analyst, Robert Griffin III, was reportedly let go by the network on Thursday. However, instead of dwelling on the news, Griffin brought levity to the situation by sharing a funny movie clip on social media. He followed it up by posting a clip of one of his iconic moments during his time at ESPN, accompanied by a classy message reflecting on the news and his future journey.

On Friday morning, Griffin seemed to shift his focus towards what lies ahead, tweeting, "When one door closes, another one opens. Trust God on your journey." While it remains unclear if he has any specific plans lined up, it is evident that his services would be valuable to any network or media company.

Interestingly, Griffin is not only an accomplished media professional but also a free agent quarterback, as he has not yet officially announced his retirement from professional football. Despite a few vacant quarterback roles last year, Griffin had expressed his interest in a potential comeback, although the sincerity of his intentions was uncertain. Reports suggest that the Minnesota Vikings are currently in search of a veteran option after the anticipated season-long absence of J.J. McCarthy.

However, as time goes on, it becomes increasingly challenging to envision Griffin making a successful athletic comeback. His most recent on-field appearance was for the Baltimore Ravens in 2020, following stints with the Cleveland Browns and Washington. Towards the end of his playing career, Griffin predominantly played as a backup quarterback.

While Griffin's departure from ESPN may come as a surprise to many, it is clear that he is ready to embrace new opportunities. Whether it be in the media industry or a potential return to the football field, Griffin's talent and experience make him a sought-after prospect. As he embarks on the next chapter of his professional journey, fans and analysts alike eagerly await news of his next move.
