Quarterback Robert Griffin III wont be back with the NFLs Washington Redskins next season, team president Bruce Allen confirmed on Tuesday. In an interview with a San Diego radio station, Allen was asked if Griffin would be back, even though he didnt take a snap for the team in the 2015 season. Well, no. I see Robert getting an opportunity with another team, Allen said. Weve heard from some teams that are interested. I think hes going to have a choice of a couple teams that will let him excel in the future.Griffin sat the entire season as Washingtons third-string quarterback and watched Kirk Cousins take control of the quarterback job. Robert Griffin III lost his starting job to Kirk Cousins The Redskins were keen to ensure that Griffin, 26, didnt get hurt and prevent them from clearing his contract worth more than $16m (£11.5m) from their books in the off-season.Allen praised Griffin for his conduct during the past season, one of frustration for the player who earned Offensive Rookie of the Year honours in 2012, guiding the Redskins to the NFC East division title.From the very beginning Robert has handled himself as a professional, Allen said. From when we first drafted him all the way through hes been a good team-mate and a good guy.I know some people on the outside always like to be critical, but his team-mates like him, his coaches like him, he does have some special talents and we wish him well.The Redskins have until March 9 to cut Griffin.

MIAMI -- Udonis Haslem has spent his entire NBA career in the shadows of others, without complaint.He was front-and-center Tuesday night.Haslem was among three enshrined into the Miami Sports Hall of Champions, joining U.S. womens national soccer coach Jill Ellis and former University of Miami and New Orleans Saints star Jonathan Vilma at Marlins Park. Haslem is now the longest-tenured member of the Miami Heat, going into his 14th season with the team when training camp starts later this month.When I look at the list of people that came before me -- Michael Irvin and Dan Marino, so many people -- to be mentioned in that category is an amazing accomplishment for me, Haslem said. Its an amazing honor. Im humbled, blessed, fortunate and just thankful. Never in a million years did I think Id be right here, right now.The three-time NBA champion still cherishes his childhood memories that stem from watching his heroes like Irvin and Marino -- both previous Sports Hall inductees -- play at the Orange Bowl, which was on the same plot of land where Marlins Park now sits.

The other $2, we figured it out.Vilma told a story about how he was moved up to varsity basketball at Coral Gables High and how Haslems Miami High team beat them handily. Vilma went on to focus on football, winning a national title with the Hurricanes in 2001 and then a Super Bowl with the Saints.For someone like myself, born and raised in Miami, growing up in Miami, this is one of those accomplishments ... that mean the most, Vilma said.Ellis -- who led the U.S. to the 2015 FIFA Womens World Cup title -- is a South Florida resident with ties to many coaches at the University of Miami and said she was humbled to be recognized.Im always amazed at how sport manages to bring people together, Ellis said.
