Vikings RB Adrian Peterson is unlikely to face more discipline from the NFL
NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport told NFL Total Access on Tuesday Night that Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson is “highly unlikely” to face further suspension when he finally comes off the Commissioner’s Exempt List.
Peterson is ready to move on.
Peterson told Josina Anderson yesterday: “I am anxious to start a new chapter and get on with the rest of my life.”
According to Rapoport, Peterson wants a clean slate by the draft:
“Peterson wants to have a completely clean slate by the draft,” Rapoport said. “His point: The Minnesota Vikings have held strong in saying they do not plan on trading Adrian Peterson. They believe he will play for them in 2015. In fact, they want him to play for either them or no one else.
“However, if they are to be tempted with a trade,” Rapoport said, “it is going to come at the time of the draft and Peterson wants to make sure there are no obstacles to him getting on the field in 2015, just in case another team decides to come calling — maybe like the Cardinals, maybe like the Cowboys.”
