Vikings exercise WR Jordan Addison's 5th-year option
Detroit Lions defensive end Aidan Hutchinson (97) tackles Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison (3) during the second half at Ford Field in Detroit on Sunday, November 2, 2025. The Minnesota Vikings exercised their fifth-year option for wide receiver Jordan Addison on Monday.
The No. 23 overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft will earn a guaranteed $18 million during the 2027 season.
Addison, 24, posted the worst numbers of his career with 42 catches for 610 yards and three touchdowns in 14 games (12 starts) last season. He was suspended for the first three games for violating the NFL's substance-abuse policy.
Addison has 175 receptions for 2,396 yards and 22 touchdowns in 46 career games (41 starts).
Vikings executive vice president of football operations Rob Brzezinski indicated at last month's owners meetings in Arizona that the team would make this move.
"He's a really important player for us, an impact player," Brzezinski said.
