After the initial NFL draft, Griffin, known as OG, was "crushed" about not being drafted. However, the free agent's worries didn't last long. It was announced on Sunday (May 2) that the former USC cornerback would be trading in sunshine for blizzards as he leaves his hometown for Buffalo, NY. Via Instagram, Griffin wrote, "Ready to win a super bowl!@buffalobills bills mafia I’m ready to work!"

His father (a West Coast, hip hop legend), revealed that the draft was one of the most exhausting experiences he'd ever been a part of. The rapper expressed, "this draft s*** was one of the hardest things I been through besides losing my mother, mother-in-law, my grandparents and aunties and brother and for things to go the way they went was totally exhausting."

However, once OG was picked up, we're sure that sigh of relief felt victorious. Warren showed his support for his son on Instagram. NFL season kicks off in September and now, we have a new player to root for.
