Robert Griffin 3 Vs. Colt McCoy: Jeff Fisher & St. Louis Rams Troll Jay Gruden & Washington Redskins, Poke Fun With 6-Player Honorary Captains & Trade Pieces From 2012 Robert Griffin III Swap

The St. Louis Rams have seen their fair share of controversy in the past week — with the events of Ferguson still close by, and their "Hands Up, Don't Shoot" statement before last week's Oakland Raiders game — but at least they've still got a healthy sense of humor. In a show of expert trolling against the Washington Redskins on Sunday, the team sent out the six rostered players that they received in the trade with Washington for their 2012 No. 2 pick — which Washington then used on Robert Griffin III — for the coin flip as honorary captains. With RG3 currently also in Washington coach Jay Gruden's doghouse, it was a salient, funny point showing up their opponent by displaying just how much they gave up for a now-backup quarterback.

As Sports Illustrated reports, each of "cornerback Janoris Jenkins, defensive tackle Michael Brockers, running back Zac Stacy, wide receiver Stedman Bailey, offensive tackle Greg Robinson and linebacker Alec Ogletree" were "drafted by the Rams as a result of the Griffin trade in 2012." Trollerific!

RG3 did actually enter the game, but only after starter Colt McCoy strained his neck and taken to hospital, reports ESPN. The 24-0 rout by the Rams was also "their first back-to-back set of shutouts since 1945", adds the ESPN game recap.

Rams coach shrugged off questions about the move, saying Monday, "I think they've got more issues than the coin toss yesterday," according to ESPN. "It was a memory that will last them for a lifetime. It's a good idea. I've sent other people out for different reasons as well. I'm glad you guys all noticed it."

As for Washington, coach Gruden may be forced to turn to Griffin this week if McCoy isn't ready to go. As Mstars News has reported, Griffin and the coach have had their share of differences this year, and it might be a hard pill for Gruden to swallow.

What do you think — should St. Louis have poked fun at Washington with their honorary captains? Was it all in good fun, or a nice touch of gamesmanship? And should Gruden start RG3 this week? Check out the footage from the game below from SI.com.
