Adrian Peterson has been reinstated back to the NFL after Judge David Doty ruled against the NFL Players Association's lawsuit. Now the question to ask is will Adrian Peterson be playing in a Minnesota Vikings jersey next season? Rumors are going around that Adrian Peterson was not happy on how the organization treated him when he was dealing with the court case during his child abuse case and AP felt like threw him under the bus. Adrian Peterson is not owed anymore guarantee money so Minnesota Vikings have leverage here. Adrian Peterson is scheduled to earn a base salary of 12.75 million in 2015.
At the NFL combine this past weekend Adrian Peterson's agent and some Minnesota personnel got into a heated argument that later lead to AP agent saying, "Adrian Peterson will never play in Minnesota Vikings uniform." The Minnesota Vikings have a decision to make on March 10 on whether they restructure his contract, trade him, or release him. As I said earlier he is owed 12.75 million this coming season. Then the following season he is owed 15-16 million dollars. Most NFL teams wouldn't want to pay a 30 year old running back that type of money. But, as we know Adrian Peterson is not a normal running back.
Some rumors are going around that Adrian Peterson wants to pay for the Dallas Cowboys. That move could happen considering that the Cowboys might let DeMarco Murray walk so they can franchise tag Dez Bryant. So if the Vikings were smart they would try to mend the problems they have with Adrian Peterson and his agent if they want him to stay in Minnesota. When a player says trust is broken with the organization that means he already has one foot out the door. If Adrian Peterson leaves the Minnesota Vikings they will never be the same again.
