I think it's just the opposite. It's like the 4th preseason game. The players have a chance to reset before the season. My expectation is that Griffin wasn't thrilled with his play the first 4 weeks, and took time outside of the pressure of week to week football to self scout his play. And the extra week puts him on par now for the later dates of when he would have come back.
I think he was making small strides each week, and the national stage will set up nicely for him and the Skins as a whole.
