Is Jordan Addison playing or suspended? Vikings WR key for Minnesota's future chances image

The Minnesota Vikings spent the first three weeks of the season without Jordan Addison.

The wide receiver was suspended for three games, and so Minnesota's receiving corps was depleted.

Early on in Ireland in Week 4, the Vikings went to Justin Jefferson, and so it raised the question of how Addison might contribute going forward.

Is Jordan Addison playing or suspended?

Jordan Addison is active and playing for the Vikings in Week 4 against the Steelers in Dublin, Ireland.

His suspension was for three games. 

At the start of Week 4, Addison was activated to the 53-man roster, and on Sunday, he was on the field for the Vikings.

The only problem for anyone rooting for Addison for their fantasy football team: Carson Wentz was peppering Justin Jefferson with throws in the early going.

Addison might take a little while to get up to speed, but he can be a great WR2 alongside Jefferson. It just might not happen immediately after missing some action and needing to shake some rust off.
