EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. —Adrian Peterson didn’t practice Thursday for the second straight day.
But make no mistake about it, the Vikings running back will be ready to go for Sunday’s noon (CT) kickoff against the Seahawks in the Wild Card round.
“I’m good,” said Peterson, who sat out with a low back injury. “I’m feeling good. I was able to rest the body today. I’ll be ready to roll on Sunday.”
The NFL rushing champion with 1,485 yards, Peterson said his nine-year NFL career has sort of flown by.
The Vikings also made the playoffs three previous seasons (2008, 2009 and 2012), giving Peterson a perspective that annual trips to the postseason can sometimes be fleeting.
