ASHBURN — Adrian Peterson was in a walking boot Tuesday and missed practice for a second straight day with an ankle injury.
But standing at his locker, the Redskins running back said he plans to play Thursday against the Minnesota Vikings. He told reporters he is “feeling good” and should be able to face his former team.
“I feel pretty confident in saying that,” Peterson said. “(Monday) was rough. I really didn’t know. I woke up this morning feeling really good. The swelling I had went down tremendously and I was able to get some cardio in today and the hydro works.
