Minnesota Vikings receiver Jordan Addison was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence in Los Angeles late Friday night.
The California Highway Patrol responded to reports of a vehicle blocking lanes on an interstate just after 11 p.m. local time near Los Angeles International Airport, according to an arrest report obtained by USA TODAY Sports. Officers arrived on the scene and found a white Rolls-Royce blocking a lane and the driver asleep behind the wheel.
"After a DUI investigation was completed, the driver was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence," the report states.
Addison was arrested just after 11:30 p.m. local time and was released two hours later.
The first-round pick in the 2023 NFL draft had 70 receptions for 911 yards and 10 touchdowns in his rookie season, becoming a major factor on the Vikings when star receiver Justin Jefferson missed nearly half of the season due to injuries.

"We are aware of Jordan Addison’s arrest this past Friday and are currently gathering more information regarding the incident," the Vikings said in a statement.
Prior to the 2023 season, Addison was cited for reckless driving after allegedly driving 140 miles per hour just before training camp. The 2021 Biletnikoff Award winner said in a statement that he "made a mistake and used poor judgment" while driving. The police report from the incident said Addison "stated his dog was having an emergency at his residence and that was the reason for his speed."
