Loser: Adrian Peterson rumors keep getting stomped
If you believe Adrian Peterson’s father, the veteran running back is in high demand. High demand, indeed. He’s been linked to the Oakland Raiders, Seattle Seahawks, Dallas Cowboys and New England Patriots.
Unfortunately, it seems like all the attention might just be a one-sided affair.
The Seahawks, Cowboys and Patriots have made it clear they aren’t interested in or haven’t discussed bringing the soon-to-be 32-year-old running back into the fold.
The Raiders are still out there as a possibility, but general manager Reggie McKenzie all but said his team wouldn’t be throwing much money around in free agency. His focus is on extending quarterback Derek Carr and pass rusher extraordinaire Khalil Mack.
So where does that leave Peterson?
In all likelihood, it means he will probably slink back to Minnesota to play out the rest of his career with the team that drafted him, for a fraction of the price he desires. That is, if the Vikings actually want him back.
