Vikings Camp 3-Cap Day 5: Peterson Sees 'Different Attitude up Front'
MANKATO, Minn. — Adrian Peterson said he was “able to open up some” in his first padded practice of 2016 on Wednesday.
The Vikings had been playing it safe with the seven-time Pro Bowl running back who is out to defend his third NFL rushing title and help the Vikings claim their second division title in a row.
“It’s really being smart and not rushing into it, but it happened during a workout [before training camp],” Peterson said. “Not to dwell on it because I’m back in action now, but it’s really no reason to get out there and try to open it up full speed and tear something.”
