Minnesota Vikings player Jordan Addison has denied charges of driving under the influence, according to TMZ. The allegations stem from an incident in July 2024 that led to the football player's arrest.

On July 12, Addison was reportedly found asleep at the wheel of his Rolls-Royce on a Los Angeles highway.
Addison has informed the Los Angeles County judge that he plans to contest the accusations of driving while intoxicated. However, he stated that if the court finds him guilty, he is prepared to accept the consequences.
“Whatever's out there for me, whatever comes with it, I'll own up to everything. I feel like anything that comes my way is meant to happen or is deserved,,” Addison said.
If he fails to prove his innocence, Addison could face penalties such as fines, license suspension, probation, or even a brief jail sentence.
In addition to legal repercussions, Addison may face disciplinary action from the NFL, which could result in a three-game suspension under the league's substance abuse policy.
