Monday open thread: What role will Adrian Peterson have with the Lions?

Do not adjust your screen folks, this is not The Twilight Zone, and this is not an alternate reality where the Lions drafted Peterson over Calvin Johnson in the 2007 NFL Draft.

The Lions have not officially announced the signing as of Sunday, but multiple reports are out that the Lions are signing the legendary running back to a one-year deal. Lions fans are all too familiar with Peterson from his time with the Minnesota Vikings, having played for the NFC North foe until 2016. Of the 15 times Peterson has faced the Lions, he has rushed for over 100 yards in eight of those games.
