US EditionJordan Addison returns from suspension ready to produce for the Vikings
Addison returns after a three-game suspension for a 2024 DUI arrest, expected to strengthen a Vikings receiving corps struggling beyond Justin Jefferson, coaches say.
- Jordan Addison, the third-year receiver, will make his season debut Sunday for the Minnesota Vikings against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Dublin, Ireland, saying returning 'felt good'.
- Addison's absence resulted from a three-game suspension that stemmed from a 2024 DUI arrest in Los Angeles, and he pleaded no contest to a lesser charge in July.
- Coaches noted that Addison remained in great shape by running routes and lifting during his suspension, while offensive coordinator Wes Phillips praised his camp performance at the TCO Performance Center.
- Coaches expect increased production from Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison, and Kevin O'Connell said Addison's return creates four starting-caliber options at receiver.
- Coaches plan to limit Jordan Addison's snaps, not targeting 80, and with J.J. McCarthy not practicing on Wednesday, Carson Wentz will start Sunday.
