Vikings receiver Jordan Addison arrested on suspicion of DUI - ESPN

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison was arrested Friday near Los Angeles International Airport on suspicion of driving under the influence, the California Highway Patrol said Sunday night.

Police have not made public Addison's blood alcohol content. The legal limit in California is 0.08.

Addison played his final college season at USC in 2022. He spent time in Los Angeles last week attending the premiere of Netflix's «Receiver,» which features Vikings teammate Justin Jefferson.
