Addison (ankle) practiced on a limited basis Wednesday, Dane Mizutani of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.
EDGE Analysis
Addison got back on the practice field Monday, when he participated without a helmet, for the first time since Aug. 14. Prior to Wednesday's session, head coach Kevin O'Connell expressed optimism to Andrew Krammer of the Minneapolis Star Tribune that the second-year wide receiver should log a full session by week's end. With a capped practice under his belt, Addison now will have two more chances to return to full activity before the Vikings potentially hand him a designation ahead of Sunday's contest at the Giants.

Head coach Kevin O'Connell said Wednesday that Addison (ankle) is in a "good spot" and should be a full practice participant by the end of the week, Andrew Krammer of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Addison was limited at Monday's practice, and he has be listed as limited again when the Vikings release their first official Week 1 injury report later Wednesday. He sprained his ankle during practice Aug. 14, which means he'll be 25 days removed from the initial injury when the Vikings face the Giants this Sunday. O'Connell apparently is optimistic about Addison's odds of playing, but fantasy managers should still have a backup plan in place.

Addison (ankle) was spotted warming up during the portion of Monday's practice open to the media, Andrew Krammer of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Addison appears to be practicing without a helmet Monday, per Alec Lewis of The Athletic, an indication that he's logging a limited session. Nonetheless, it's encouraging to see the second-year wideout handling reps again for the first time since he was carted off the field Aug. 14. The Vikings will likely continue ramping up Addison's activity level ahead of Sunday's regular-season opener on the road against the Giants. Wednesday's first official practice report of the campaign will shed more light on Addison's status for Week 1.

Addison (ankle) did not practice Tuesday, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Addison was carted off the field during an Aug. 14 practice with an ankle injury. Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell said the next day that Addison did not suffer a major injury and isn't expected to miss extended time. However, there's no clear timetable for his return. It seems unlikely he'll play in any more preseason games.

Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell said Thursday that Addison (ankle) did not suffer a major injury during Wednesday's practice, when the receiver was carted off the field, Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
O'Connell noted that he doesn't envision Addison missing extended time, though the second-year wideout looks likely to sit out Saturday's exhibition contest against Cleveland. Addison could be a candidate to return in time for the Vikings' preseason finale at Philadelphia on Aug. 24, though it'll depend on how quickly he gets back on the practice field.

Coach Kevin O'Connell said Addison (ankle), who was carted off the field Wednesday, isn't believed to have suffered a serious injury but won't practice Thursday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Addison will undergo further tests on his ankle, per Alec Lewis of The Athletic, but the belief is that the second-year pro has avoided a serious injury. O'Connell said of Addison "I think he's going to be OK," Dane Mizutani of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports. Even if Addison has avoided a major injury, it seems likely that he'll be held out of Saturday's preseason game against the Browns. With J.J. McCarthy (knee) having undergone season-ending surgery Wednesday, Addison looks set to catch passes from Sam Darnold to begin the regular season.

Addison has an Oct. 7 arraignment and plea hearing scheduled in Los Angeles County Superior Court stemming from his citation last month for suspicion of driving under the influence, Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Per Seifert, as a result of the July incident, Addison was charged with two misdemeanors -- driving under the influence of alcohol and driving with .08 percent blood alcohol content. The report adds that the wideout could potentially face an NFL suspension once his legal proceedings are complete. As the coming season approaches, Addison is slated to work as the Vikings' No. 2 wide receiver behind top option Justin Jefferson. As a rookie, the 2023 first-rounder recorded 70 catches (on 108 targets) for 911 yards and 10 TDs in 17 regular-season contests.

Addison, who was arrested July 12 in Los Angeles on suspicion of driving under the influence, said Wednesday that he is ready to face any discipline. "Whatever's out there for me," he said, "whatever comes with it, I'll own up to everything. I feel like anything that comes my way is meant to happen or is deserved," he told ESPN. However, no charges in the incident have been filed as of last week.
EDGE Analysis
Last summer, Addison pled guilty to a misdemeanor speeding charge after being cited for driving 140 miles per hour in Minnesota. The pattern of behavior could lead the NFL to discipline Addison, but the timing of any possible suspension remains in doubt. The NFL will likely let the legal process play out, which could stretch into the regular season. Addison's remarks, however, make it seem like he anticipates some kind of punishment from either the NFL or the legal system.
