Adrian Peterson to Be Reinstated Friday

Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson will be reinstated to the NFL on Friday, the league announced Thursday.

Peterson played in only game during the 2014-2015 season, after legal trouble arose around the way Peterson handled disciplining his child.

The Vikings released a statement on their website that read, “The Minnesota Vikings have been informed by the NFL that Adrian Peterson has been reinstated. We look forward to Adrian rejoining the Vikings.”
