Minnesota Vikings defensive end Everson Griffen is returning to the team after being out for the past month for a mental health evaluation.
The Vikings say Griffen will resume team activities Wednesday. They didn’t say when he would return to game action.
Griffen, a three-time Pro Bowler, left the team in late September after a series of events that included a welfare check at a hospital. A police report described erratic behavior that included a threat of violence at a downtown Minneapolis hotel and a text message to his wife referencing suicide.
General manager Rick Spielman said Griffen’s return comes in consultation with his doctors.
