It was another Monday of questions for Washington coach Jay Gruden about quarterback Robert Griffin III, including whether Griffin would be in the starting lineup against the Colts this week.

Gruden said that he had “every intent” of putting Griffin in the lineup, but added that “there’s a chance” to re-evaluate things at several positions after the Redskins lost 17-13 to the 49ers in Santa Clara on Sunday. Griffin was 11-of-19 for 106 yards and battered behind an offensive line missing left tackle Trent Williams, who Gruden hopes will be back this week, in the game, leaving Gruden to sum it up as not “a good day” for the passing offense.

Gruden also said that they had to look all over the offense for ways to improve, a process that should start with the offensive line but has to include Griffin. And it should probably include Griffin continuing to start.

There’s no playoff spot coming, which means eyes should be on the future and making a decision about Griffin’s future with the team has to be a priority. He’s played just four full games since Gruden became the head coach and everyone in Washington needs to know if they’re looking for another quarterback this offseason. Unless they’ve already made that call, there’s reason to see what Griffin does the last five games before making it.
