Addison was alleged to have trespassed during a January 12th visit to a Noodle Bar at a Hard Rock Hotel & Casino near Tampa Florida. According to reports from Kevin Seifert at ESPN, Addison was alleged to have not complied with requests from casino security to leave and was arrested shortly after police were dispatched at 3:42 a.m. Assistant State Attorney Antonio Rodriquez, after reviewing a criminal report affidavit, filed a notice of termination of prosecution with the Hillsborough County Court. The prosecutor cited no reason for terminating the prosecution to the court.  According to Mike Garafolo, Addison plans on filing a civil action for unlawful arrest.

Addison will likely avoid any NFL discipline related to this incident. However, Addison’s continue brush ups with law enforcement are a foreboding trend. This is now Addison’s third incident since joining the league of alleged criminal activity. Addison previously pleaded guilty to reckless driving with the involvement of alcohol occurring in California in 2024, which resulted in a three-game suspension. In 2023, Addison pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor speed offense occurring in Minnesota, which resulted in no league discipline. Addison can hopefully steer clear from trouble this off-season with the hopes getting his first 1,000 yard receiving season in 2026.
