Wishful thinking or insider information? Either way, I wasn’t expecting to see Dallas RGIII jerseys today. pic.twitter.com/mvCwNzyxPS

WASHINGTON — Robert Griffin III may not have had a big presence on the field during the Washington Redskins’ victory over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday.
But the former first-round pick quarterback did have a major showing on the sidelines, thanks to a couple of fans who donned custom RGIII Cowboys jerseys.
The photos made the rounds on Twitter during the game, for which Griffin was inactive.
Initial reports were that the jersey wearers were related to RGIII, but the Redskins later refuted those claims in a tweet:
From #Redskins PR: Contrary to published reports, the fans seen wearing Griffin III Dallas jerseys today were not members of his family. — Washington Redskins (@Redskins) January 3, 2016
