Santana Moss says his former Washington Redskins teammate, Robert Griffin III, is out of football because of his issues dealing with coaches.

Griffin claims that his issue with Mike Shanahan is that the coach never wanted him to be Washington's quarterback in the first place.

"This guy, I think, can still play this game. He might not be a starter, but he still should be able to play. But when you have those situations that occur with coaches," Moss said.

Santana Moss claims Robert Griffin III gloated about his role in the firing of Mike Shanahan.

Griffin denied Moss’s claim in a tweet on Tuesday and called his former teammate’s comments “a betrayal.”

“Come 2013, all of [a sudden] it’s a whole big dilemma in the locker room, in the meeting rooms, and just in our building, that, you know, the man, Mike Shanahan, and RG is not seeing eye to eye,” Moss said of the fractured relationship between Griffin and Shanahan in 2013. “You know, we don’t know. We’re players. We sit back and let things be done. That’s not something that I partake in, so it’s not nothing that I’m interested in. And before you know it, RG’s not playing. … I’m not sure if that was [Griffin’s] whole plan, but when the whole thing went about, we hear that Mike Shanahan’s not coming back the next year, then we hear the quarterback like, ‘Hey, mmhmm.’ Like basically saying that, ‘Hey, you got me out of here not playing last year the last few games, then that’s what happens. You get fired.’ You can’t do that. One thing I just shared with you, God don’t like ugly. The little credit that [Griffin] did take for saying, ‘They didn’t like what I was doing’ or ‘They benched me and not allowing me to play,’ that’s what happens.”

“No subtweeting needed,” Griffin tweeted on Tuesday. “Santana Moss, I treat you like a brother and have always had your back. To openly like about me is a betrayal … ”

Griffin also claimed that he was “put in an impossible situation” with a coach in Shanahan who never wanted him.

Kirk Cousins fumbled late against the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday, leading to a game-clinching touchdown.

The play was reviewed and looked like an incomplete pass rather than a fumble.

Official Brad Allen ruled that it was a fumble and an Eagles touchdown. When he went to replay, the decision was upheld by the NFL's senior vice president of officiating, Alberto Riveron.

However, Dean Blandino, the man Riveron replaced as the league's head of officiating, saw the play differently. He now works for FOX as an analyst.

"Yeah, there was one angle where it looked like it may have been a fumble," Blandino said alongside Mike Pereira. "But the shot from behind, the end zone look, the hand was coming forward and it looked like a forward pass. It's a close call, but we both felt it was a forward pass."

Scot McCloughan has filed a grievance with the NFL over Washington's decision to fire him.

McCloughan had an annual salary of $1 million to $2 million per season as general manager of Washington.

“I know who I am and what I did there,” McCloughan said, with no sign of animus in his voice. “Did I build a Super Bowl champion? No. But I did a good job, along with other people there, of making the roster better. I did a good job, with [Coach] Jay [Gruden], in making the quarterback change.” 

McCloughan has relaunched Instinctive Scouting, which he started when he resigned in April of 2014 with the Seattle Seahawks.

McCloughan has spoken openly about his issues with alcoholism. 

Su'a Cravens has been convinced by Washington not to retire from the NFL.

Cravens, 22, is nursing a knee injury that is expected to force him to miss the start of the season.

Cravens is one of the league's youngest players, a second-round pick last year.
