Sorry that my brief edit summary may have misled you. Here is the situation in more detail: the article (Robert Griffin III) has no mention of the person having a nickname, so this dab page (see WP:MOSDAB) should have no claim of the person having a nickname either. Good sources would be required to justify using the nickname in the article (that's where references belong). A disambiguation page does not use references, and does not introduce new facts (if something is worth noting, it should be in the article, not here).

Regarding the point of the person having a nickname: The two links above are minor mentions of the same event, namely that in October 2012 one person used the "Black Jesus" nickname in a single interview. My opinion is that an encyclopedic article should not portray that as an established nickname—more sources would be needed. However, the place to discuss that is in the article.
