The Minnesota Vikings will have defensive end Everson Griffen back for Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints.

Per Zach Royse of the team's official website, Griffen has been a full participant in practice this week and will make his first appearance since Week 2.

Ryan Raiche of KSTP Eyewitness News reported Sept. 25 that Griffen's name was redacted from a police report stemming from an incident at a hotel in which he "threatened to assault staff members and was laying on the lobby floor."
