Tip your caps to Robert Griffin III for this gesture.

The Redskins quarterback showed up to a Centreville (Clifton, Va.) High School lacrosse game to help student Morgan Assel ask classmate Juwaan Espinal to the prom.

Espinal, who suffers from cerebral palsy, is a big RG3 fan.

As part of Assel's surprise proposal, Griffin helped carry a large banner that read, "I know I'm not as cool as RG3, but will you go to the prom with me?"
