Robert Griffin III will reportedly make his much anticipated return under center this weekend.

Griffin will start Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings, according to Dianna Marie Russini of NBC 4.

"He's got a good shot," added NFL Network's Albert Breer, who added that a heavier workload on Thursday and Friday will ultimately "dictate the decision." 

Kirk Cousins and Colt McCoy have been filling in since Griffin dislocated his ankle in Week 2.

McCoy played well in a victory Monday over the Dallas Cowboys, but apparently not good enough to keep Griffin on the bench.
