He made his championship debut in 2008.[1] In the 2009 championship, he played and scored [at least] one point against Carlow in their All-Ireland qualifier meeting, then came off the bench to score a goal against Cork in their All-Ireland quarter-final encounter at Croke Park.[2][3]
A member of the Donegal panel that won the 2012 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship Final against Mayo, he was an unused substitute in the final.[4][5]
In the last round of 2015 National Football League fixtures against Mayo, Griffin came on as a substitute and scored the vital point that sent his county into the NFL semi-final at Mayo's expense.[6]
