Griffin has no plans to take the job of Nick Foles. He just wants to get back in the game.

On ESPN's First Take, Griffin suggested to Stephen A. Smith the Eagles should give him a chance.

"I watched you banging the hammer for Colin Kaepernick to go there (to the Eagles)," Griffin said. "I think you should be banging the hammer for me to go there.

"I don’t think I’m in a position to come in right away and start for a playoff team next week, just because you need to get in, get used to the guys, get used to the offense. But as far as coming in and providing some stability at the backup position, so that if the starter does go down, I think I could definitely do that.

"I’m prepared, I’ve been throwing, I’ve been working out and kept my mind sharp and watching the game and studying film. So, from that standpoint, I think I can help."

Griffin has completed 63.3 percent of his passes for 8,983 yards, 42 touchdowns, 26 interceptions, and a 88.4 passer rating in five NFL seasons (15-25 record). He has also rushed for 1,670 yards and 10 touchdowns, but lost the mobility that made him a dual-threat quarterback in his early seasons. Griffin suffered a torn ACL, dislocated ankle, and shoulder injury in his NFL career, leading to just 69 carries for 366 yards and there touchdowns over the last three seasons.

Griffin has claimed that he worked out for the Los Angeles Chargers over the summer, and was close to signing for the Baltimore Ravens. Griffin also confirmed he has received "interesting offers" from other teams throughout the league.

Griffin is hoping the Eagles give him a call as a backup quarterback. That would get him a foot in the door toward reviving a once-promising NFL career.
