Adrian Peterson's Agent in Heated Exchange With Vikings Vice President, Says "It's Over"

Adrian Peterson “will never play another game for the Vikings,” his agent shouted at a team official last week in Indianapolis, as tensions between the two sides reached a boiling point. According to CBS Sports, Peterson’s agent nearly came to blows with Minnesota VP of football operations Rob Brzezinski in Indianapolis, and the two had to be separated by ESPN analyst Mark Dominik.

Peterson has spent the first seven years of his career in Minnesota, but after the team suspended him last season following child abuse charges, “[he] lost faith and trust in the franchise.”

The Vikings are saying all the right things now about retaining Peterson, but it appears too little, too late. Via CBS Sports:

"Peterson and the NFLPA have taken their case against the NFL’s discipline to a federal court, and, unless the court was to intervene, Peterson currently cannot be reinstated to the league until April 15 at the earliest. Peterson’s camp has every intention to hasten his trade or release from Minnesota, and this situation could continue to flare between now and then."

Rumors have surfaced that Peterson would like to play in Dallas, but one would assume he’ll go anywhere there’s a good offensive line (see Seattle, Houston, Baltimore, etc). Plenty of teams could use an elite running back – Arizona, Oakland, Tampa Bay to name a few – but they’re also likely to balk at the hefty price tag on a guy who turns 30 next month. [via CBS Sports]
