Robert Griffin III accidentally roasted Jeff Saturday’s time with Colts while discussing his potential return to ESPN

Former NFL quarterback turned ESPN commentator Robert Griffin III accidentally burned one of his old (and maybe soon-to-be) co-workers.

While discussing the Indianapolis Colts hiring Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Shane Steichen as their new head coach, Griffin mentioned former interim Colts coach Jeff Saturday potentially heading back to ESPN.

While it’s not necessarily what Griffin said, his quippy delivery of the line “guess we’re getting Jeff Saturday back” after talking about the Eagles and Colts once again sharing coaches made himself and his fellow ESPN analyst Booger McFarland laugh.

You can see the video in full from Awful Announcing below.

For context, Griffin actually wasn’t a fan of the way Saturday got hired in Indy, even if he was happy for Saturday the person and tried to find positive in the move.

To be honest, it is a little hilarious that Saturday could be going from his bizarre interim stint with Indy to his old gig at ESPN.

Colts owner Jim Irsay turned a lot of heads when he made that befuddling coaching change for Saturday last fall, but it was ultimately all for naught with Steichen’s hiring. At least Saturday has his previous job to fall back on.
