Adrian Peterson will start against Colts, Joe Berger at right guard

Adrian Peterson will start today against the Colts after the running back was given the final green light to play following pregame warmups.

It is unknown how much Peterson will play today in his first game since undergoing surgery in late September to repair a torn right meniscus. But one suspects that at the very least he will split the carries and handle the goal-line work, which was a big issue in the win at Jacksonville.

Fellow running backs Jerick McKinnon and Matt Asiata are also active.

Joe Berger is back in the lineup today after missing the past two games with a concussion.
