title : Robert Griffin III Leaves Bible Verse as Quarterback Parts with Washington Redskins
summary : God-fearing Washington Redskins' quarterback Robert Griffin III earned a touchdown with Christians without even playing in Sunday's NFL Wild-Card football game. He chose to leave a letter for his teammates, rather than to talk to reporters Monday, as his way of saying goodbye. Griffin's letter, quoting "The Paradoxical Commandments" written by Dr. Kent Keith in 1968, appeared underneath a framed verse from the Bible - Philippians 4:13: "I can do all this through him who gives me strength."
