Minnesota Vikings
Peterson expected to play in Week 3
Vikings to let legal system play out before imposing discipline
By: Mike Krueger | Sep 15 2014, 11:50 am

The Minnesota Vikings announced Monday that running back Adrian Peterson will return to practices and meetings this week and is expected to play Sunday against the New Orleans Saints. Peterson was deactivated for the Vikings' Week 2 game against the New England Patriots after he was indicted by a grand jury on charges of reckless or negligent injury to a child. (ESPN)

FFToday's Take: "At this time we believe this is a matter of due process and we should allow the legal system to proceed so we can come to the most effective conclusions and then determine the appropriate course of action." The Vikings will the Peterson case play out in the legal system before imposing any kind of punishment. Peterson owners can exhale for now and should be able to plug him into lineups for the foreseeable future.
