A year removed from a well-publicized mental health incident, Griffen is 'one of the hardest working guys we've got.'
As the Vikings gathered for their team meeting on Wednesday morning, Mike Zimmer had a series of plays he wanted to show them from Everson Griffen's game in Green Bay on Sunday.
The highlights — of the defensive end dipping his shoulder low as he banked around David Bakhtiari in the first quarter, of him bull-rushing Lane Taylor into the Packers' backfield as he forced Aaron Rodgers to throw the ball away in the second quarter — looked like vintage Griffen, full of the athletic ability and fierce edge that's made him one of the NFL's most accomplished pass rushers.
