well, the redskins did it tonight. they won with a good win, a good game, but a lot of people right now talking about, you know, the situation with the quarterbacks and how did kirk cousins play and when will rg3 be back and i know a lot of questions came out

about that tonight. carol and jason live in baltimore tonight. hey, guys. >> kristin, pregame drama, all about rg3. the night belonged to kirk cousins and colt mccoy and redskins were happy. just because it is preseason, doesn't mean we can't celebrate the big win. >> offense put up some points and moved ballot do ed the ball field. they looked pretty good. let's look at the highlights now and show you how this all went down at the stadium. robert griffin iii not playing tonight. kirk cousins getting the nod. the offense made noise early. joe flacco, first drive of the game, hook up with steve smith sr., this is a 63-yard touchdown. baltimore takes an early lead. they're up 7-0. into the first quarter, 40 seconds to play. akin makes the catch, taken down hard here by inside linebacker keenan robinson.

the ravens not locking that tackle. big scrum ensued. head coaches getting into it. gruden and harbaugh ex-changing words. smith and culliver ejected from the game. into the hands of the rookie, jamison crowder, his first nfl touchdown. redskins first team offense finally gets on the board. trail 13-7. later in the quarter, more from cousins, this time to ryan grant, makes the guy miss, 26 yard game. ravens 1 yard line. cousins through for 190 yards, one touchdown and one pick. chris thompson would punch it in later and the skins have a 14-13 lead. ensuing kickoff, though, some trouble for the ravens or the redskins. jackson. either way, the redskins, they would win this one by a final score of 31-13 to win the third preseason game in the preseason

over the baltimore ravens. >> we have to talk about robert griffin iii, he was on the field for an hour going through his pregame routine. he was cleared on thursday and last night the neurologist reversed his decision, sitting out, recovering from last week's discussion. today's report, losing his starting job to cousins, head coach jay gruden addressing this after the game. >> through the protocol, get retested, end of the week thursday or friday and see how he's doing and make our decision then. we're all as confused as you are. people have to understand this has nothing to do with the redskins. people want to make it out we're incompetent, but we're not. this had nothing to do with us. it was an independent doctor, a verbal -- he said with our doctor, and then all of a sudden the written statement was different. the written report was different. so we followed proper course and did what we thought was right for robert and what the report

said. and we followed everything by the book. >> were the starters indispensable. trent williams is returning, around for a while, signing a contract extension today. he announced via twitter he's happy to be redskins for next five years. three-time pro bowler making big time money, $6.6 million -- i'm sorry, $66 million a year. a weird typo. $66 million a year, $43 million of it guaranteed. that makes him the league's highest paid offensive tackle in the league. >> good for him. one of the best players if not the best player on the roster. good he got his money. to baseball now, the nationals in action taking on the marlins tonight and they picked up a much needed win. we'll pick this up in the second inning. ryan zimmerman up in the scoreless game and he's going to change that with one swing of the bat. taking this ball to deep center. a monster shot by zim.

434 feet, gave the nationals a 1-0 lead. bottom of the sixth, they're up 2-0, clinton robinson going yard. this is a two-run shot. they lead 4-0. they go on to win by a final score of 5-1. good to see the nationals pick up a win against the marlins. that does it for us. we'll send it back to you in stud wrote. >> we're glad the redskins win tonight. >> yeah. >> that's it for us tonight.

>> okay, tomorrow's the big day, mrs. clinton. you're finally going to announce that you're running for president. >> oh, my gosh. i don't know if i have it in me. i'm scared. i'm kidding. let's do this. [ both laugh ]
