28-Year-Old CornerbackCB
Minnesota Vikings
2023 Fantasy Outlook
Griffin was limited to just five games for Jacksonville in 2022 due to a back injury, which reared itself during organized team activities early in the summer. The 28-year-old cornerback is a former Pro Bowler who will compete with Steven Nelson and Desmond King for the spot opposite Derek Stingley. Nelson was the primary starter last season, but there are no guarantees under the new coaching regime. Read Past Outlooks

Griffin signed a contract with the Vikings on Tuesday, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Griffin finished his 2023 campaign with Carolina after being waived by the Texans in November. The veteran corner appeared in a total of 13 games between the two teams, making 39 tackles and defending four passes, including his first interception since 2020. A Pro Bowler in 2019, Griffin will bolster Minnesota's depth in the secondary.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2020
2019
2018
Griffin bounced back from his sophomore slump and was the clear No. 1 cornerback in Seattle, yielding 7.3 yards per target and four touchdowns over 14 games in 2019. He also racked up 65 tackles and 13 pass breakups. The 24-year-old will face competition from Quinton Dunbar to be the top dog in Seattle's secondary, but he'll have a consistent starting gig. A better pass-rushing presence would boost Griffin's upside, but for the time being, he'll have his hands full in a division with strong quarterback play.
The Seahawks wanted Griffin to step into the top cornerback spot after Richard Sherman left town, but he regressed and had difficulties in coverage. At times, rookie Tre Flowers even usurped him as the team's top corner. Griffin will look to bounce back against the strong NFC West offenses, which will be no easy task. His fantasy value is limited since he only totaled 23 pass breakups and three interceptions over the last two seasons, and the taste of last year's dud lingers.
With a stellar rookie season of 59 tackles (50 solo) and 15 pass breakups under his belt, Griffin will be handed more responsibilities in 2018. Richard Sherman signed with division rival San Francisco, which shifted Griffin from right to left cornerback for OTAs. Without Sherman, Griffin looks destined to line up against opposing team's top targets, which should boost his numbers further in his sophomore campaign.
