On Sunday NFL Countdown, ESPN insider Adam Schefter admitted this about Vikings running back Adrian Peterson: "My sense is still that he will play this season and sooner rather than later." (Pro Football Talk)

Fantasy Impact:

(According to Pro Football Talk), in a statement released by the NFPA, Peterson said that the players’ union advised him the meeting that NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell wanted him to attend on Friday was inconsistent with the CBA.

Despite all this it appears the 29-year-old Oklahoma product could be back in a Minnesota uniform in Week 12.
