ASHBURN, Va. -- After his first preseason series with the Washington Redskins, running back Adrian Peterson retreated to the sidelines and surprised Samaje Perine with what he did next: ask questions. Peterson, a future Hall of Famer, wanted to know from Perine, just starting his second season, if he’d made the right decision on a cut.
Perine wasn’t expecting the question, but he spit out a quick answer, telling him he had no choice but to cut outside the way he did. The moment stayed with Perine, however, and set a tone for Peterson’s stint with the Redskins.
