In 2018, Griffen underwent a mental health evaluation after Minneapolis Police Department arrested the four-time Pro Bowler. Griffen threatened to shoot a person at the Hotel Ivy. The Vikings requested that Griffen undergo the evaluation.

Later it was revealed that Griffen suffers from bipolar disorder.

In 2021, Griffen was involved in an erratic scene where he live-streamed himself with a weapon and claimed he was defending himself from a supposed intruder in his home.
