MINNEAPOLIS (FOX 9) - The Minnesota Vikings are about a week away from training camp, and one of their rookies will now start the 2023 season dealing with a legal matter.
First round pick Jordan Addison was cited for speeding and reckless driving early Thursday morning in St. Paul, according to an incident report from the Minnesota State Patrol. Addison was stopped just after 3 a.m. after being clocked at 140 miles per hour, driving a Lamborghini Urus, in a 55-mile per hour zone on eastbound Interstate 94 near the Dale Street exit.
A state trooper made a traffic stop, where the driver was identified as Addison. The incident remains under investigation, and Addison was not arrested.
