Vikings defensive end Everson Griffen has come out of his home without incident and is getting cared for following an incident at his residence, the team announced in a statement on Wednesday afternoon.
According to the Minnesota Public Safety Department, Griffen said on the call that someone was inside his home and that he needed help from the police.
When asked about Griffen’s possible status for Sunday’s game against the 49ers, Zimmer said “that’s not our concern right now,” according to ESPN’s Courtney Cronin.
“Their family is our family,” said GM Rick Spielman during a press conference held Wednesday afternoon regarding Griffen’s situation.
The 33-year-old has spent 11 of his 12 NFL seasons with the Vikings, who selected him with the 100th overall pick in the 2010 draft.
