Adrian Peterson to meet with NFL about playing status

Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson is expected to meet with the NFL on Tuesday to talk about his playing status.

Peterson is eligible to be reinstated on April 15 after being suspended last season under the NFL’s personal conduct policy because of a child abuse case involving his son.

Peterson agreed to a plea deal in November to one count of misdemeanor reckless assault. But the 30-year-old remains on the Commissioner’s Exempt List.

Peterson’s future with the Vikings remains in limbo. Recent reports suggest that he wants out of Minnesota and that Dallas could be a landing spot.

Peterson has spent his entire career with the Vikings. Since being drafted out of Oklahoma in 2007, he has rushed for 10,190 yards and scored 86 touchdowns.
