Jordan Addison Pleads Guilty to Lesser Offense, Gets Fine and Probation

Thursday, July 17, 1:52 PM

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison will plead guilty to a lesser vehicular offense commonly referred to as a "wet reckless" a year after his initial DUI citation, according to ESPN's Kevin Seifert. As a result, Addison will pay a standard fine and complete two online courses, although we must still wait to see how the NFL reacts. The 23-year-old's probation is expected to be terminated early in six months. A 2025 suspension for Addison is still possible, although if he is suspended by commissioner Roger Goodell, we wouldn't expect it to be for more than two or three games at the most. The former first-rounder took a slight step back in Year 2 in 2024 with a 63-875-9 line in 15 starts, but he was still plenty productive behind All-Pro Justin Jefferson. With a suspension still looming, Addison's fantasy value is still a bit shaky as a WR3/flex.

Zay Flowers Sitting Out of Wednesday's Practice

Wednesday, July 30, 3:58 PM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers (knee/leg) did not practice on Wednesday, but head coach John Harbaugh said the Pro Bowl wideout had "camp-like" stuff pop up and will get a day or a few days off. It sounds like Flowers is dealing with a minor ailment, so fantasy managers should not be concerned at this point. In his second NFL season last year, Flowers secured 74 of his 116 targets for 1,059 yards and four touchdowns. The former first-round pick out of Boston College has been excellent to start his NFL career, but high-end WR1 upside for fantasy football is likely out of reach thanks to the Ravens' dominance on the ground. Either way, he's a solid WR2/3 or flex option and has the big-play ability to produce spike weeks. His competition for targets in the wide receiver room remains weak entering 2025.
