Vikings decline Adrian Peterson's option, making him a free agent

Feb 28, 2017

Vikings announce they will not exercise the option on Adrian Peterson's contract.

Fantasy Impact:

Peterson turns 32 in March, so it remains to be seen how much gas he has left in the tank at this point in his career. He gained just 72 yards on 37 carries (1.9 YPC) in 2016, but gained 1,485 yards (4.5 YPC) the year before.

When asked by @NFLSTROUD, Bruce Arians says Antonio Brown is a game-time decision and doesn't have to practice this week in order to play. "He's a veteran, he knows what he's doing."

Fantasy Impact:

Antonio Brown could still be limited against Green Bay even if he's able to play through the knee issue. If sidelined or a no-go, snaps and targets would open up for both Scotty Miller and Tyler Johnson.
