Vikings Roundup, 8/12: Peterson 'Doing pretty good'

MANKATO, Minn. — Adrian Peterson is scheduled to speak with media today after practice and will likely be asked about a leg injury that sent him to the sidelines early during Tuesday’s practice.

We’ll have updates from the running back later today, but until then, here’s a note from Offensive Coordinator Norv Turner.

“Coach Zimmer obviously gives the injury reports, but I talked to (head athletic trainer) Eric Sugarman,” Turner said. “We all held our breaths for a second. Adrian is fine.”

Peterson already was unlikely to play in the preseason, which gives him more than a month until the Vikings open the regular season at the 49ers on Sept.
