  "account": "Former Seattle Seahawks and San Francisco 49ers fullback Michael Robinson sparked controversy on NFL Network's NFL Gameday with a take criticizing Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts. Robinson suggested that Hurts might be using his blood clot-related injury to deflect blame for the team's struggles. However, former Heisman Trophy winner and NFL quarterback Robert Griffin III responded on X, calling Robinson's comments \"RIDICULOUS\" and accusing him of accusing Hurts of \"pulling himself out so that this doesn't look like it's on me\" when Hurts has a potentially life-threatening condition. Griffin III emphasized that the health of Hurts and other players should not be compromised by criticism of the Eagles team struggles.",
