Florida Drops Trespassing Charge Against Vikings WR Jordan Addison

Addison's representatives plan a civil claim alleging wrongful arrest.

Overview

  • Florida state attorney Susan Lopez filed a termination of prosecution on Jan. 20 and ordered the release of Addison’s $500 bond.
  • The misdemeanor allegation involved trespass in an occupied structure at the Jubao Palace Noodle Bar inside Tampa’s Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino.
  • Security reported repeatedly asking Addison to leave in the early morning of Jan. 12 before police arrived and arrested him minutes later.
  • Court records show he was booked that morning and released the same day after posting a $500 cash bond.
  • Attorney Brian Pakett said Addison did nothing legally wrong and welcomed the swift dismissal, and agent Tim Younger said a civil wrongful-arrest claim will be prepared; prior incidents include a 2024 DUI case that led to a three-game NFL suspension and a 2025 season of 42 catches for 610 yards and three touchdowns.
