Much like his time with the New Orleans Saints, Adrian Peterson's return to the Mercedes-Benz Superdome didn't go exactly as he hoped.
Peterson left the game after he dislocated his shoulder in the first half. Peterson said he was blessed that the injury wouldn't keep him out long and was happy for his former quarterback, Drew Brees, who became the NFL's all-time leading passer in the Monday night matchup.
"It doesn't surprise me, being around during the time I was around him, it was set in stone why he was able to go out there and perform the way he performs," Peterson said.
