Vikings second-year wide receiver Jordan Addison was recently charged with two misdemeanors after his July 12 arrest. Addison has a hearing scheduled on Oct. 7. Regardless of how the hearing goes, it’s being speculated Addison will serve some sort of suspension.
Any suspension stemming from Vikings WR Jordan Addison’s DUI-related charges will void the $5.99M in guaranteed money remaining on his contract, per Spotrac.
Addison signed a rookie contract worth $13.73 million over four years, which is a lot of money for the young wide receiver.
This isn’t the first off-the-field issue the Vikings have faced while Addison has been on the roster. During his rookie season, Addison was picked up behind the wheel for driving 140 MPH in a 55 MPH zone.
It’s clear Addison is more than likely on his last leg with the Minnesota organization. If he makes no more mistakes, another young phenom could be on his way out of the NFL.
