Signs with Detroit
Griffin agreed to a contract with the Lions on Thursday, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press reports.
Analysis: Griffin appeared in a career-high 13 games with the Saints in 2021 and hauled in all four of his targets for 39 yards. He wasn't tendered a contract by New Orleans in early March but will attempt to carve out a depth role with the Lions in 2022.

Set to hit free agency
The Saints did not tender Griffin's contract Monday, so he will become a free agent, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Analysis: Griffin caught all four of his targets for 39 yards across 13 games in 2021. The 27-year-old tight end saw snaps on offense and special teams in every game until he suffered a season-ending hamstring injury Week 14. However, he appears to be healthy heading into the offseason, so it's possible he draws interest from teams in search of tight end depth.

Four catches in 2021
Griffin caught four of four targets for 39 yards across 13 games in 2021.
Analysis: Finally seeing consistent playing time, Griffin saw snaps on offense and special teams in every game appearance before suffering a season-ending hamstring injury Week 14. However, the 27-year-old participated in practice after being designated to return from IR in early January, per Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football, so Griffin seems to be entering the offseason in good shape.

Designated to return from IR
Griffin (hamstring) was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Analysis: The Saints will now have 21 days to either activate the tight end or leave him on the IR to end the season, though it may not matter considering they're on the outside looking in when it comes to making the playoffs. Griffin has been out since Dec. 18 while dealing with the hamstring issue, playing in all 13 of the Saints' games prior to the injury while making four catches for 39 yards.

Catches three passes
Griffin caught three of three targets for 30 yards during Sunday's 36-27 win over Tampa Bay.
Analysis: Griffin hadn't even been targeted with a pass all season before catching three of them Sunday. However, it's possible the Air Force product could go the rest of the season without matching this production.

No role in passing game
Griffin logged 17 offensive snaps during Sunday's 38-3 win over the Packers.
Analysis: Griffin was in the starting lineup next to No. 1 tight end Adam Trautman, but Juwan Johnson was ultimately used much more as a receiver. Meanwhile, Griffin logged nearly half of the available snaps on special teams. Barring an injury to Trautman or Johnson, it seems unlikely Griffin will ever play a significant role in the passing game.

Secures roster spot

Will return to practice
Griffin (undisclosed) is expected to return to the Saints' practice field Thursday, Amie Just of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Analysis: Griffin sat out of Monday's exhibition game against the Jaguars due to an undisclosed injury. His quick return to practice is a positive, as he is competing for a depth tight end role with the team. The 27-year-old has primarily been a practice squad player for New Orleans during his four-year career.

Out of action Monday
Griffin (undisclosed) won't play in Monday's preseason game against the Jaguars, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Analysis: Griffin apparently got "banged up" in the Saints' last practice. He's in a battle for a roster spot as a depth tight end, so Griffin can ill afford to miss significant time due to this injury.

Analysis: Griffin made his first NFL appearance since 2017 when he was called up for four games this year. The Air Force product totaled 91 targetless snaps on offense in that stretch. The 26-year-old will aim to secure a depth role in 2021.

Signs to active roster
The Saints signed Griffin to the 53-man roster Saturday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

He's played in two games with the team this year, receiving no targets over 40 snaps on offense, and he'll slot in as the No. 3 tight end behind Jared Cook and Adam Trautman.

Promoted from practice squad
Griffin was elevated to the Saints' active roster from the practice squad Monday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
Analysis: The 26-year-old was elevated from the practice squad as an extra player last week and will do so again Monday against the Chargers.

He was on the field for 22 of the team's offensive snaps but failed to record a target. If Cook remains out, Griffin could return to the active roster Week 5 against the Chargers.

Couldn't make final roster
Griffin was waived Saturday by the Saints, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Analysis: It was always going to be a tough path for Griffin to earn a roster spot, particularly after the team selected Adam Trautman in the third round. Griffin, who has spent a good deal of time on the team's practice squad, could be in line to do so again to begin 2020.

Tough path to roster spot
Griffin (undisclosed) may have a tough time cracking the Saints' season-opening roster, Larry Holder of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Jared Cook remains the starter at tight end and Josh Hill hasn't missed a game since 2016, and New Orleans also added Adam Trautman in the third round of April's draft. Griffin spent last season on injured reserve and hasn't seen game action since 2017.
