Adrian Peterson's goal for 2015: 2,500 rushing yards

A restructured contract in his back pocket, Adrian Peterson is feeling pretty confident for a guy who played in just one game last season.

Peterson is pretty optimistic about where he'll stand in the hierarchy of great running backs once he calls it a career, so it only makes sense the Minnesota Vikings star is just as ambitious about his in-season aspirations.

In an interview with the Vikings' team website, Peterson said Saturday he's aiming to rush for 2,500 yards this season.

"I always keep the mark at 25 [2,500], so if I get close to that, that's not bad," Peterson said.
