Scoggins: Adrian Peterson would likely balk at restructure
by Jake Perper | Sun, Feb 15th 2:01am EST
Chip Scoggins said this about the Peterson-Vikings situation: "The organization is not allowed to have contact with Peterson until his legal case gets resolved, but my gut feeling remains that Peterson would balk at a restructuring request. He believes he’s still the best running back in football, and he told ESPN.com in December that he doesn’t see why he would be asked to take a pay cut." (Star Tribune)
Fantasy Impact:
Peterson's cap number will be $15.4 million, while WR Greg Jennings stands to count $11 against the cap until a looming restructure. It would make sense for the Vikings to keep AP in the backfield with QB Teddy Bridgewater entering year two and the team looking to take the next step forward. Plus Minnesota has plenty of cap space.
