Report: Everson Griffen at Mental Health Facility After Wife Called Police

Minnesota Vikings defensive end Everson Griffen is at a mental health facility in Minnesota after his wife contacted police Saturday.

Per Paul Walsh of the Star Tribune, Griffen was taken to the hospital after a series of events over the weekend.

Griffen's wife called authorities from their home after she claimed he "sped off in a vehicle with another person and was not wearing a shirt."

After Griffen returned later, a woman who was at the home of Vikings cornerback Trae Waynes told police she saw the three-time Pro Bowler walking around shirtless in the bushes outside of the house.
