Jordan Addison Addresses Social Media Speculation

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison clarified that his Instagram post captioned 'Free 3' was not an indication of dissatisfaction or a desire to be traded from the team, but rather a personal slogan he has used since 2020. Despite speculation surrounding the post, Addison affirmed his contentment with the Vikings and attributed his reduced production this season to an ankle injury and fewer team pass attempts. Addison expressed a desire to improve his performance and is focused on contributing to the team's success as they prepare to face the Indianapolis Colts. His performance metrics have declined from his rookie year, with 14 receptions for 231 yards and one touchdown compared to last season's 70 catches for 911 yards and 10 touchdowns. With the impending return of tight end T.J. Hockenson, there is potential for increased opportunities for Addison in the Vikings' offense.
