Griffin is slated to draw the team's start at QB in the contest with Lamar Jackson illness unavailable. If the Ravens don't take the field Sunday, the club has a short week prior to playing the Cowboys on Dec. Griffin has taken just 17 snaps for Baltimore this year, completing one of his three passes for nine yards and one interception while rushing five times for one yard.
Griffin appeared in seven games in , completing 23 of 38 passes for yards, one touchdown and two interceptions. He added 20 rushing attempts for 70 yards. The veteran was a serviceable backup to Lamar Jackson, completing over 60 percent of his passes and eating up snaps when games were decided with time remaining.
Griffin wasn't quite sharp enough to revive his stock as a potential starter elsewhere, however. He struggled in his lone start, going for passing for 96 yards and a pick. Griffin is under contract through , so he should be expected to reprise his role as the backup this coming season unless Baltimore unexpectedly decides it's comfortable with Trace McSorley as its No.
Griffin completed 11 of 21 pass attempts for 96 yards and an interception Sunday against the Steelers. He also carried eight times for 50 yards in the win. Griffin struggled to connect with his receivers, completing just over half his passes while averaging 4. He did his best Lamar Jackson impression as a runner, however, and gashed the Pittsburgh defense for 6. Griffin also took three sacks and turned the ball over once, so, despite the victory and flashy rushing stats, it wasn't exactly an ideal performance.
The veteran will return to the bench during the postseason and should see the field again only in the event of a blowout or an injury to Jackson. With Sunday's victory in Cleveland, Baltimore has locked down the No.
Griffin hasn't seen much more than spot duty this season in six appearances, completing 12 of 17 passes for yards, one touchdown and one interception while turning 12 carries into 20 yards. Griffin completed all six of his passes for 55 yards and a touchdown Sunday against the Dolphins.

Griffin was signed on April 4, Three weeks later, the Ravens drafted Jackson, which left Griffin battling to make the roster. He did, serving as the No. It was a new role for Griffin, but one that he embraced. But whatever opportunity there is for me to compete as a starter or go somewhere, to solidify a backup spot, or help a young guy — whatever it is, I just want to keep playing.
I just love this game so much. Over the course of three years, I feel like I helped to accomplished that. They brought me in to compete, be active for the team and provide leadership. I feel like I did that. Then fill in when need be, and I feel like I did that as well. Griffin's best game as a starter in Baltimore was the Week 17 finale in , when he and other backups defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers, who had a strong defense and all their starters playing.
That win secured Baltimore's best regular-season record in franchise history and set the record for team rushing yards in a single season. Did I throw any passes that led us to the playoffs? Did I score any touchdowns that led us to the playoffs? But I also didn't detract from what the team's main goal was, and that's winning at all costs," Griffin said.
I feel like I can be a starter; it's just about getting that opportunity. Griffin will always be a part of the beginning of Jackson's career. Now Griffin expects to watch Jackson develop his overall game even more, whether that be from afar or near.
