The Minnesota Vikings are bracing for a three-game suspension for wide receiver Jordan Addison over last year’s DUI arrest, ESPN reported Monday.
Addison, 23, resolved his legal case last month by pleading no contest to a lesser charge. He was placed on 12 months of probation and ordered to pay a fine and complete two online courses.
He was arrested in July 2024 near Los Angeles International Airport after police found him asleep at the wheel of his Rolls-Royce, which was blocking a lane of traffic on Interstate 105.
The Vikings’ first three games of the regular season are at Chicago in Week 1 and home games against Atlanta in Week 2 and Cincinnati in Week 3.
Addison caught 63 passes for 875 yards and nine touchdowns in 15 games (all starts) in his second season in 2024.
The 2023 first-round draft pick (23rd overall) has 133 receptions for 1,786 yards and 19 TDs in 32 games (29 starts).
