Everson Griffen to Resume Team Activities Wednesday, October 24

We have been in communication with Everson’s medical professionals throughout this process and have relied on his recommendations regarding the appropriate next steps for Everson. We are excited to welcome Everson back to the Vikings and to see him around teammates, coaches, and staff - people who care deeply about his well-being. Our focus will continue to be on providing an on-going support system for Everson and his family.

Statement from Everson:

"Being around my teammates and coaches is something I have missed for several weeks. While this is an exciting and positive move forward for me, it is only the next step in a longer process. I look forward to once again putting in the work with the guys and contributing to this team in any way I can. My larger focus remains on addressing my personal health, and I’m hopeful the time will come when I feel comfortable sharing my story and using my platform to bring awareness to these issues. I continue to be extremely grateful for the constant support from my family, my teammates, the Vikings organization and our tremendous fans."

I am truly happy for him. I wish him and his family all the best. That on-going support system is key.

Needs to start getting back to a normal routine. He can open up to his teammates as well. That will help him too. Wonder how long before he's ready to suit up?

Assuming family means wife i am glad to hear his family is sticking with him after initial reports of her looking to leave him.

Huge. Getting back the best player on D. From a talent aspect and from an uplift for the team's morale, it couldn't come at a better time. His teammates love him.
