From the moment Jordan Addison pleaded no contest in mid-July to a lesser charge to resolve a 2024 DUI citation, the Minnesota Vikings (and the rest of the NFL world) expected the third-year wideout to receive a three-game suspension to open the 2025 season, as that's the typical punishment for a first-time offender in this particular type of case.
And on Tuesday, that's exactly what went down, as the league announced that Addison will indeed be suspended without pay for the Vikings' first three regular-season games against the Chicago Bears, Atlanta Falcons, and Cincinnati Bengals.
