Shortly after the Washington Redskins acquired Case Keenum from the Denver Broncos, a former Redskins quarterback appeared to weigh in on the deal. 

And, oh boy, get a load of this.

“That’s definitely what the fans wanted,” Robert Griffin III tweeted. 

Ouch.

Griffin tweeted at 5:51 p.m. Eastern, three minutes after the NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport tweeted the news of the trade.

Griffin, of course, was once seen as the savior of the franchise after the Redskins traded up and drafted him second overall in 2012. But injuries and drama derailed his career, leading to his release in 2016. 

Griffin spent last season as a backup with the Baltimore Ravens.
