Robert Griffin III or RG3, tweeted out the video for his new Adidas commercial.

The commercial is entitled “Blow Up” – All in For Week 1.

So Redskins fans are celebrating all over Washington and as RG3 is set to complete his Adrian Peterson like return to the NFL this season right?

The video features scoreboards catching on fire and field exploding and goal posts blowing up. It also features kids working out, and some RG3 working out. He is doing that ropes exercise while seated. And it ends with the camera zooming in on him with the tag line for “All in for week 1.”

Well RG3 felt the need to clarify what that means.

“Feel like I need to say this..Although my goal is to start Week 1, that doesn’t mean I will compromise my career to do so,” Griffin wrote.

What!?!?!?! But you just said!

Well I think the meaning of the tag line is that you, the general athlete, focus on week 1, that is the work in the offseason that is important for you to be successful during the season and not so much a guarantee from RG3 himself.
