Vikings GM Rick Spielman and head coach Mike Zimmer met with RB Adrian Peterson at his Houston, Texas home on Wednesday afternoon. Peterson said he appreciated the visit from Spielman and Zimmer and admitted that they had great dialogue. It was highlighted by this comment by Peterson: "they were able to understand where I was coming from and concerns my family and I still have." He went on to say that they all respect each other and he hopes that the situation can pan out. According to Kare 11 News in Minneapolis, Peterson hugged both Vikings higher ups as they approached his house for the meeting. (Josina Anderson on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

This is very interesting considering just last week Peterson left the Vikings out of his statement after his suspension was reversed. Also, trade talks have been a float as its been reported he would redo his current contract for a new team. He is owed $12.75 million in 2015. Minnesota may ultimately have to trade him if he wants out. Only time will tell where Peterson winds up, but the Vikings were smart to try and make things right with him on Wednesday.
