The biggest question at each position for the Minnesota Vikings in 2019
By Adam Carlson
Is Everson Griffen mentally and emotionally stable?
One of the biggest stories last season was the mental condition of Everson Griffen. He missed time with the team while putting himself back together, a process that many news organizations speculated on greatly.
While there are still some great question marks surrounding the reason for Griffen going MIA, the hope is that he is fully prepared to take on the challenges which the 2019 season will provide for the talented defensive end.
Griffen is coming off his lowest sack total since 2013, earning only 5.5 quarterback takedowns for the season despite playing in 11 games. This will be an opportunity for him to prove he’s ready to return for a full 16.
Secondary question: Can Danielle Hunter repeat his amazing season?
Danielle Hunter is RED HOT right now. He’s coming off a season where he registered 14.5 sacks and is still only going to be 25 years old this year. If he can continue to improve or even match his performance from 2017, Hunter could be in line to lead the league in sacks.
