Vikings star running back Adrian Peterson holds a 64-yard lead in the race for the NFL rushing title entering the final week of the regular season.
He’s keeping track, too.
“Of course,” the rushing title matters, Peterson said with a big smile. “I’ll have the opportunity to do that this weekend. It’s not something that I’m trying to focus on too much. Of course I’m going to go out and always put my best foot forward.”
The Vikings visit Green Bay Sunday night with the NFC North championship on the line.
Peterson has totaled 1,418 yards on 308 carries.
