Rumor: Adrian Peterson asks for trade to Cowboys

by Brian Tesch | Sun, Feb 22nd 11:34am EST

According to Jason Cole of Bleacher Report, Adrian Peterson wants to be moved, and specifically to the Dallas Cowboys. Cole states "Adrian Peterson wants to go to Dallas. The Minnesota Vikings are aware of that. In talking to a high-level NFL executive, everybody knows what everybody wants." But the Vikings do not want to move Peterson for any return, especially to Dallas. Cole continues, "The Vikings will not, do not want to trade him, in any way shape or form, specifically not to the Cowboys. Don't expect that to happen, at least from their end. There's a lot here to play out, but the Vikings do not want to send him to the Cowboys." (Jason Cole via Bleacher Report)

Fantasy Impact:

Remember, the Cowboys were alleged of tampering with Peterson when owner Jerry Jones met with the Vikings RB, who was raised in Texas. While I don't think that Peterson is going to be moved, where there's smoke, there's most likely fire, Peterson may be moved sometime before the start of the 2015 season.
