Minnesota Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer said the team expects defensive end Everson Griffen to return to the squad after meeting with the player Tuesday night, per ESPN's Adam Schefter.
Griffen had the ability to void the final three years of his contract after hitting necessary on-field markers and he decided to opt out of the deal last week, per Courtney Cronin of ESPN.
However, he now has the opportunity to re-sign with the team and the Vikings believe he will do just that.
