Personal life
On July 20, 2023, Addison was pulled over and cited for speed and reckless driving before reporting to his first training camp. Driving a Lamborghini Urus on Interstate 94 in Saint Paul, he was allegedly going 140 miles per hour (230 km/h) in a 55 miles per hour (89 km/h) zone at 3AM. The same day, the Vikings released a statement, stating they were aware of the incident and were looking into it.[15][16] Addison told a police officer at the scene that he was driving at that speed due to a medical emergency involving his pet dog.[17][18]
