Adrian Peterson: 'It would be nice' to play for Cowboys

Adrian Peterson admitted on Tuesday night what is no longer a secret — he wants to play for the Dallas Cowboys.

Peterson was in attendance for Game 5 of the Western Conference playoff series between the Dallas Mavericks and Houston Rockets, and Mike Leslie of WFAA Sports asked him about the rumored possibility that he could be traded to the Cowboys.

“It would be nice,” Peterson said. “I’ve got family here, my dad’s here. But I’m under contract, so we’ll see.”

In a separate chat with Guy Rawlings of KTVT-TV, Peterson said it is “out of my hands” when asked if he wants to play in Dallas.
