Muddled; rotten (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

addled

I believe this is a double definition.

'muddled' is the first definition.
(synonyms)

'rotten' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

(Other definitions for addled that I've seen before include "Confused and vague" , "Perplexed -- rotten" , "became rotten" , "(Of an egg) went bad" , "Of egg, rotten and producing no chick" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
