Prosecutors Drop Trespassing Charge Against Vikings WR Jordan Addison

Attention now turns to a potential civil claim by his representatives.

Overview

  • Florida state attorney Susan Lopez terminated prosecution on Jan. 20, and court records order Jordan Addison’s $500 bond returned.
  • Addison was arrested Jan. 12 at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Tampa after casino staff asked him to leave the Noodle Bar and police escorted him out.
  • He was booked into Hillsborough County Jail and released the same day on bail, with the police report noting he was repeatedly redirected toward the exit before his arrest.
  • Addison’s agent Tim Younger and attorney Brian Pakett say no charges will be filed and that they are preparing a wrongful or false arrest claim.
  • The resolution follows earlier incidents in 2023 and 2024 that led to a speeding conviction and a three-game NFL suspension, and it arrives as the Vikings approach offseason contract decisions such as the fifth-year option.
