Cleveland Browns quarterback Robert Griffin III was involved in an altercation on Florida State's campus last Monday night per a report by TMZ.

Griffin, who dates former FSU track athlete Grete Sadeiko, was doing an off-season training session at the FSU track facility when he bumped into another runner. The other runner took exception to being bumped, and started the altercation.

TMZ released a video that shows Griffin being pulled away from the incident by Sadeiko.

"The [other guy] got heated and got way too close to [Robert] but Robert didn’t touch the guy not once nor put his hands on him," Sadeiko told TMZ.

"The guy tried to approach him again while Robert was walking away. I went between so the guy wouldn’t do anything stupid and that was the end of it."

Griffin was selected with the second pick of the 2012 NFL draft by the Washington Redskins after winning the Heisman Trophy at Baylor during the 2011 season.

He was named the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year in 2012 after leading the Redskins to the playoffs. He suffered multiple knee injuries during the season, and gradually lost his starting job to Kirk Cousins.

Griffen was released by the Redskins after the 2015 season, and signed with the Browns. He started five games for Cleveland last season.
