Former NFL quarterback Robert Griffin III has attracted some trolls after recording a curious skit with his wife this week.
Griffin, who worked at ESPN before The Worldwide Leader in Sports released him and replaced him with Jason Kelce last year, has previously gone viral for sharing odd posts with his wife, with that giant croissant one probably the most popular.
He was at it again heading into the weekend, sharing a video captioned, “When you accidentally take Melanin instead of Melatonin to fall asleep,” which shows his wife (who’s white) getting into bed and chewing a gummy before going to sleep then waking up as him.

As you can see, the ex-ESPN analyst went all out for this one, as he wore his wife’s clothing and everything.
Fans on social media had plenty to say, with one of them recalling the time Rob Parker referred to RGIII as “a cornball brother” in an old ‘First Take’ episode.

While many clowned RGIII over his new skit, there were several others who thought it was pretty funny.
Criticism or not, RG3 will keep being RG3, especially as he has some more time on his hands now.
