Here's the update from ProFootballTalk:

Via Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com, a jury trial will commence on July 15, in a California court.

Baseline punishment for first offense DUI is a three-game suspension.

The NFL’s procedure becomes activated by resolution of the criminal case. Either a conviction or an admission within the context of, for example, entering a diversion program, accepting deferred adjudication, or pleading no contest triggers a suspension.

At this point, it is simply a wait-and-see scenario regarding the legal situation and pending discipline from the league.

Addison is gearing up for his third NFL season and has been a playmaking threat throughout his career for the Vikings. In two seasons, he has 1,786 yards and 19 touchdowns.
