Justin Jefferson, Dalvin Cook among those absent for Vikings' voluntary practices

Receiver Jordan Addison watched Vikings players run through plays Tuesday during the team's second organized team activity, marking the start of 11-on-11 practices without pads or tackling.

Addison, held out for an undisclosed reason, was among a handful of noteworthy absences during a voluntary portion of the offseason. Running back Dalvin Cook, edge rusher Danielle Hunter and receiver Justin Jefferson also weren't on the field for the first session open to reporters. Addison, the 23rd overall pick out of USC, declined an interview request.

Cook remains away from the team that has explored trading him this spring.
