Summary

Before becoming one of the greatest running backs in the NFL, Adrian Peterson overcame several personal tragedies. He held his dying brother in his arms after a tragic accident, was separated from his imprisoned father, was stunned by the murder of his stepbrother, and endured many career-threatening injuries. But through it all, he has run the football with a pride, force, and vengeance that sets him apart from almost all other modern running backs. Peterson sets goals that are so high that even attempting them makes him special. Peterson's natural and almost superhuman ability has been shaped by hard work, coaching, and discipline. His story is one of courage and patience leading to greatness on the fields of the NFL. In Adrian Peterson, read about the life, career statistics, and achievements of this football superstar of the Minnesota Vikings.
