Everson Griffen becomes free agent after talks end with Vikings
According to defensive end Everson Griffen's agent, "We have broken off talks with Minnesota because they have to spend their money elsewhere and we decided to now focus our attention on free agency."
What It Means:
Griffen will head into free agency after starting 71 games for the Vikings. The veteran pass rusher should attract plenty of interest after producing all-around elite numbers including a 1.5 quarterback hit average (106 in 71 starts) and a 7.9% career hurry rate.
In 1,776 pass-rushing career opportunities, Griffin is averaging a 6.0% QB Hit Rate and a 11.1% Pressure Rate.
