Washington Redskins’ Coach Joe Gibbs said that after reviewing game films from last season he has put running back John Riggins on waivers and suggested he retire.
Gibbs said that he gave Riggins two options--either announce his retirement or check around the league for a team that might be interested in him.
“Whether I’m right or wrong, I’m convinced that it is time for him to retire,” Gibbs said, adding that if Riggins, 36, finds a team to play for, the Redskins will not ask for compensation from that team.
