Adrian Peterson wears purple for the Vikings, but he fantasizes about being green.
During a recent practice, several players were discussing which superhero they would like to be. The Vikings running back had no problem coming up with his favorite.
"We were joking around and he said he wanted to be the Incredible Hulk," said running back Matt Asiata.
That's not a surprise considering Peterson attended a Halloween party in 2012 dressed as the Hulk. And yes, he painted himself green that day.
Now, Peterson, who missed the final 15 games last season, is prepared to play in his first NFL game in more than a year.
