Addison played one season at USC after transferring from the University of Pittsburgh. He caught eight touchdown passes for 875 yards, earning him All-Pac-12 First-Team honors.

Addison was selected No. 23 overall in the 2023 NFL Draft by the Vikings. He had 70 receptions for 911 receiving yards and ten touchdowns in his rookie season.

“We are aware of Jordan Addison’s arrest this past Friday and are currently gathering more information regarding the incident,” the Vikings said in a statement.

According to NFL.com, this is the second consecutive offseason Addison has encountered a legal issue on the road. In July 2023, the Minnesota State Patrol cited him for speeding and reckless driving for going 140 mph in a 55 mph zone.
