In unrelated news, the Kansas City Chiefs might be in the market for a WR.

Anything that helps the Vikes 2nd round draft pick sink is good with me. 

 

 

As long as nobody is hurt, of course. 

[Dave_Bills]

I actually wanted him in the draft

[TheyCallMeAndy]

Asleep on the freeway!? 

[Big Blitz]

Recall last year - claimed he was trying to get his dog to the vet

Addison strikes me as the type of receiver that will probably get close to #1 wr money but is too small to really be worth it.

Wanted him in Buffalo in the draft. DUI's are so weird. Two guys do the exact same thing, one can go to prison for over a decade and one can get a slap on the wrist and it's basically a roll of the dice. I wonder if the penalty was more based on the decision to do it vs the outcome if more people would be hesitant to roll the dice.

Not a good look when his team mate was killed by a drunk driver less than a week ago

These guys are so dumb on so many levels. 

 

1) Call an UBER FFS

2) A few million dollars is not enough to buy a Rolls Royce and a Lambo. Buy a Mercedes or a 5 series and invest the rest.

Ironically Addison had 911 yards in his rookie season.

420 probably would have been more apt.

Who gets 10 years for one dui? If you hurt someone while drunk you get additional charges like manslaughter, vehicular homincide, etc. And what penalty are you talking about? He was just arrested. Weird comment. I hope you arnt driving right now...

The probability of hurting somebody while driving intoxicated is the exact same for somebody who hurts someone and somebody who doesn't. Yet the charges are completely different.

Not the exact same as it depends on the level of intoxication and how recklessly you were driving.  Some people think they can make it home going 10mph under the speed limit not to attract cops while others (like Henry Ruggs) will drive 156 mph weaving in and out of traffic before slamming into a car resulting in the death of a 23 year old girl.  There's no defense in either situation but the latter should definitely be more severely punished.

Jesus, asleep at the wheel is insane. Get an Uber or a driver man

[Mr. WEO]

he had almost made it to the rental car return...

[Big Turk]

Why are these idiots out driving when drinking in the first place?  Call an Uber...rent a limo...why risk a suspension or killing someone else to be an idiot?

[KingBoots8]

Given his history and his teammate dying from a drunk driver last week… yikes, this is a BAD look. Kid is talented but needs to get his life together if he has any hopes of living out his dream. Can’t see how he dodges some sort of punishment by the league this time.
