Listed at 6-foot-2 and 181 lbs., Addison is rated as a 3-star wide receiver by the 247 Sports Composite Rankings. He’s also the No. 21 prospect out of the state of New Jersey for the cycle.
Despite being rated as a receiver, Justin Rowland with Cats Illustrated reports that Kentucky views Addison as a defensive back at the next level. It is not immediately clear if that means the Wildcats plan on slotting Addison at corner or safety.
Addison becomes the 13th commitment for Kentucky in the 2023 recruiting class. That group currently ranks 43rd nationally by the team recruiting rankings.
