An Everson Griffen video is trending for all the wrong reasons.
People are expressing support and concern for Vikings defensive end Everson Griffen after he shared a number of posts on his Instagram Story.
Griffen holding a gun in a dark room while referring to some people out to “get” him.
He also dropped Vikings running back and teammate Dalvin Cook’s name during the 30-second long video. He claims Dalvin Cook helped him purchase his gun.

Just saw the video of Everson Griffen (no I’m not going to RT). That’s really damn scary. It’s very clear he’s not right, right now & needs help. I really help the Vikings act on this quickly & get him help but something bad happens. Mental illness is no joke.

Man, just saw the Everson Griffen video and news. Hope everything is ok and everyone is fine. He has had his mental health struggles. Seemed like he found help after 2019, hopefully he gets the help he needs again. :/

Griffen last saw action on the field last Sunday during a 34-31 home win against the Green Bay Packers in which he appeared in 43 snaps.
Hopefully Griffen gets the helps he so desperately needs.
