Sept. 17 (UPI) -- Minnesota Vikings defensive end Everson Griffen sustained a concussion in a car accident earlier this week after swerving to avoid a deer, head coach Mike Zimmer said Friday.
Griffen, who was added to the team's injury report because of the concussion, was ruled out for Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals. Anthony Barr (knee), Christian Darrisaw (groin) and Harrison Hand (hamstring) also were ruled out for the Vikings.
