Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2020
2019
2018
Griffin was limited to just five games for Jacksonville in 2022 due to a back injury, which reared itself during organized team activities early in the summer. The 28-year-old cornerback is a former Pro Bowler who will compete with Steven Nelson and Desmond King for the spot opposite Derek Stingley. Nelson was the primary starter last season, but there are no guarantees under the new coaching regime.
Griffin bounced back from his sophomore slump and was the clear No. 1 cornerback in Seattle, yielding 7.3 yards per target and four touchdowns over 14 games in 2019. He also racked up 65 tackles and 13 pass breakups. The 24-year-old will face competition from Quinton Dunbar to be the top dog in Seattle's secondary, but he'll have a consistent starting gig. A better pass-rushing presence would boost Griffin's upside, but for the time being, he'll have his hands full in a division with strong quarterback play.
The Seahawks wanted Griffin to step into the top cornerback spot after Richard Sherman left town, but he regressed and had difficulties in coverage. At times, rookie Tre Flowers even usurped him as the team's top corner. Griffin will look to bounce back against the strong NFC West offenses, which will be no easy task. His fantasy value is limited since he only totaled 23 pass breakups and three interceptions over the last two seasons, and the taste of last year's dud lingers.
With a stellar rookie season of 59 tackles (50 solo) and 15 pass breakups under his belt, Griffin will be handed more responsibilities in 2018. Richard Sherman signed with division rival San Francisco, which shifted Griffin from right to left cornerback for OTAs. Without Sherman, Griffin looks destined to line up against opposing team's top targets, which should boost his numbers further in his sophomore campaign.

Among top free agents left
CBFree Agent
May 3, 2023
Gregg Rosenthal of NFL.com ranks Griffin as the second-best free agent remaining after edge rusher Yannick Ngakoue.
ANALYSIS
Griffin was released by the Jaguars after a disappointing 2022 season in which he struggled when available and missed 11 games due to hip and back injuries. If Griffin can regain health, he would be an enticing bounce-back candidate for teams in need of help in the secondary. The 27-year-old cornerback has 72 NFL starts under his belt.
