According to reports, Addison was found asleep behind the wheel late Friday and was released early Saturday morning after being booked. This is the second vehicle-related incident for Addison since entering the NFL, although he never received a formal punishment from the league for that case. Given the repetitive nature of Addison’s offenses, there’s a chance that the league could seek to punish Addison in accordance with its personal conduct policy. The Vikings QB situation remains largely in the air, although QB Sam Darnold reportedly has the inside track on the starting job heading into training camp over rookie first-round pick J.J. McCarthy. Addison’s numbers sans Kirk Cousins last season fell markedly short of his production with the since-departed veteran QB, and with Justin Jefferson providing suffocating target competition and T.J. Hockenson slated to return at some point in 2024, the sophomore wideout will likely have a hard time replicating his numbers from early in 2023. There’s been no official word yet regarding any potential punishment for Addison, but fantasy managers should stay tuned in the coming days and weeks to get a better idea of what might lie ahead as we move into training camp.
