Vikings RB Adrian Peterson's appeal to be reinstated to the NFL has been denied. Peterson is eligible to apply for reinstatement in April 2015, but he has already indicated that he may opt for retirement or a run at the Olympics instead. (ProFootballTalk)

Fantasy Impact:

Peterson seems bitter about the way his case has been handled and seems set to sue the NFL. It is within the realm of possibility that he will return to the Vikings at a reduced salary or sign with another team. However, Peterson will turn 30 in March and has essentially missed the 2014 season. His long-term fantasy outlook is clouded in uncertainty.
