As the Minnesota Vikings wrapped up family day at training camp in Mankato, the team's official Twitter page shared a photo that has some people stirred up.
The drama between Adrian Peterson and the Minnesota Vikings continues as one report states that the former Pro Bowler may consider retirement as a way to get away from the Vikings.
With recent quotes being released by Adrian Peterson and his agent failing to mention the Minnesota Vikings, I decided to write a letter to the running back.
Dear Adrian,
The Adrian Peterson saga took another turn Thursday as federal judge ruled in favor of Peterson, who had appealed his suspension from the NFL. This most likely opens the door for him to return to the league before the original date of April 15th. The question is, where will he play?
Following yesterday's hearing and promised "quick" decision, the NFL has suspended Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson for the remainder of the 2014 season under the league's personal conduct policy. The suspension follows the child abuse case that initially resulted on him being put on the exempt list until his legal case was resolved.
Adrian Peterson has been away from the Minnesota Vikings for just about two months as he has dealt with legal issues surrounding child abuse allegations. In that time, the team has looked to other players to step up. With Peterson's plea deal yesterday, the question of if or when he will return to the team is up in the air.
After the Minnesota Vikings announced early Wednesday morning that Adrian Peterson would be placed on the commissioner's exempt list and will be required to stay away from the team until his legal case is settled, questions arose about whether or not he would be paid during his time away.
The Minnesota Vikings put the ship into reverse by announcing early this morning that Adrian Peterson will be placed on the Exempt/Commissioner’s Permission list, basically he's been suspended, without being suspended, only in the NFL folks.
Following a controversial day for the Minnesota Vikings that included reinstating Adrian Peterson and new allegations of another child injured during a disciplinary incident involving Peterson, the Radisson hotel chain announced a suspension of their sponsorship of the team.
On the same day that the Minnesota Vikings ownership and General Manager Rick Spielman announced they would reinstate Adrian Peterson and allow due process to take its course, KHOU-TV in Houston, Texas is reporting allegations of another instance of injury while disciplining one of his children.
