Last week, wide receiver Jordan Addison was arrested for speeding. He was speeding around 160 km/h. He apparently had a reason too: according to the report, his dog needed his help.

An emergency with his dog allegedly caused wide receiver Jordan Addison to speed down a freeway at completely excessive speeds. The Minnesota Vikings rookie faces charges of driving 140 miles per hour (just over 220 km/h) the previous week, with only 55 allowed at the spot outside of St. Paul.

Emergency of the dog?

According to “ESPN”, a description of the incident released by the Minnesota State Patrol states that Addison stated his dog had an emergency at his home. This, it says, was the reason for his high speed. Pass catcher Addison, the 23rd pick in this year’s draft, was not arrested.

According to the police report, an officer noticed a Lamborghini Urus travelling at a grossly excessive speed on Interstate 94 shortly after 03:00 last Thursday night. Addison was stopped and now faces a hefty fine.
