Disturbing story from Minnesota...
Everson Griffen has been the equivalent of 5150'd/Baker Acted after a Saturday incident where Griffen was heard threatening to kill one or more parties at the Hotel Ivy (where Griffen was staying...) and a Saturday incident where Griffen was apparently breaking and entering into a home of a teammate -- though, more likely, hearing from the teammate, that probably was more an extension of the concerns the team had for Griffen... The teammate probably takes him in.
And it gets worse: Griffen had been acting in an erratic manner at the team facility most of the current season and was finally banned from there and ordered for the psych evaluation on Thursday.
He's 30. Ninth year in the league, Pro Bowl the last three years... Knee injury out last week, will not play the Thursday nighter vs. the Rams.
Head injuries, yes.... But I do get the sense it's also coming apart in Minnesota -- not unlike a certain other high-profile incident in Oakland a number of years back.
