Adrian Peterson Fantasy Stats

Free-agent running back Adrian Peterson will not face felony domestic-violence charges, according to TMZ. His case will be sent to the Los Angeles City attorney, who could still bring misdemeanor domestic-violence charges against Peterson. His wife, Ashley, said that at "no point" did Peterson hit her during their altercation at the Los Angeles International airport on Sunday. "It's blown out of proportion," Peterson said. "Me and the wife got into an argument on the plane. That was pretty much the gist of it." The 36-year-old future Hall of Famer played in four games for the Tennessee Titans and Seattle Seahawks last year and had only 38 carries for 98 yards (2.6 yards per carry) and two touchdowns. Peterson says he wants to continue playing in 2022, but he's unlikely to be on the fantasy radar if another team takes a chance on him.

Free-agent running back Adrian Peterson was arrested on Sunday morning at the Los Angeles airport in connection with what airport officials called a domestic-violence incident. He was given a $50,000 bail and was released Sunday afternoon on bond. Officials said police responded after a flight bound for Houston had to return to the gate because of "a verbal and physical altercation" between Peterson and his wife Ashley. The 36-year-old is scheduled for a court date on June 16. Peterson was charged with felony child abuse in 2014 and eventually pleaded no contest to a reduced charge of misdemeanor reckless assault. Although he finished last season on Injured Reserve with the Seattle Seahawks, Peterson said he plans on playing in 2022.

Seattle Seahawks running back Adrian Peterson (back) would like to keep playing and doesn't want his career to end the way it did this year with his injury. Peterson finished the year on the Seahawks practice squad Injured Reserve due to a lower back injury. The 36-year-old will be back on the open market this offseason and will be looking to latch on elsewhere if he can prove he's fully healthy. In four games with the Seahawks and Titans, Peterson carried the ball 38 times for 98 yards (2.6 yards per carry) and two touchdowns, adding four catches for eight yards. While it's certainly possible that AD can work himself into shape to play again in 2022, it's clear that he doesn't have much left in the tank at this point in his career. If he joins another club, Peterson will mainly be providing veteran depth.

The Seattle Seahawks placed running back Adrian Peterson (back) on the practice squad Injured Reserve on Wednesday. Peterson managed to play in just one game for the Seahawks back in Week 13, rushing the rock 11 times for 16 yards and one touchdown. The 36-year-old future Hall of Fame really showed his age this year in four games with the Titans and Seahawks, averaging an anemic 2.6 yards per carry on 38 rushing attempts. It's been an amazing career in the NFL for Peterson, but the end is probably close. Rashaad Penny has become the clear lead back for the Seahawks in the last month, and he'll have a mouthwatering matchup in Week 17 against the Detroit Lions.

Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said that running back Adrian Peterson (back) was "running around" at Wednesday's walkthrough practice and has "a chance" to play in Week 15 against the Los Angeles Rams after missing last week's game against the Houston Texans with low-back pain. However, Rashaad Penny took over the backfield in the win over Houston with over 100 rushing yards and two touchdowns. The Seahawks will continue to mix and match with Penny, Alex Collins and Travis Homer (if healthy), but the lead-back role is now Penny's to lose after his Week 14 performance. It's unclear where AP would fit into Seattle's crowded backfield if he's healthy enough to play this weekend, but fantasy managers should stay away.

Seattle Seahawks running back Adrian Peterson (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Houston Texans. According to head coach Pete Carroll, Peterson has been dealing with a back injury and won't be elevated from the practice squad ahead of Sunday's game. His next chance to return will be Week 15 against the Los Angeles Rams. Alex Collins, Rashaad Penny, and DeeJay Dallas will lead Seattle's backfield against the Texans. Penny is expected to be a big part of the offensive game plan, per Carroll. Fantasy managers searching for a streamer in deep-leagues can use Penny against a Texans defense that allows the fourth-most fantasy points to running backs this season.

Seattle Seahawks running back Adrian Peterson made his debut with his new team this past week, but with Alex Collins (abdomen) and Rashaad Penny both expected to be available in Week 14, Peterson isn't expected to be elevated from the practice squad. The veteran hasn't practiced this week, but players on the practice squad aren't required to be listed on the injury report. The Seahawks backfield has been a mess for most of the season, and fantasy managers should expect a mix of Collins, Penny and Travis Homer in Week 14. Collins is likely to lead the backfield, but his unpredictable volume makes him hard to trust in a favorable matchup versus the Houston Texans in Week 14.

Seattle Seahawks running back Adrian Peterson wasn't particularly efficient in his Seattle debut, but he still managed to score in Week 13 against the San Francisco 49ers. Peterson had 11 carries for 16 yards and one touchdown on the day while seeing no work in the receiving game. With Alex Collins (abdomen) out of the lineup, Peterson was the team's leading running back, and he was tied with Rashaad Penny for the team lead in RB touches. If Collins misses time moving forward, it's clear that Peterson remain the leading back in the running game, but he doesn't figure to have a ton of fantasy value unless he finds the end zone.

Seattle Seahawks running back Adrian Peterson is anticipated to handle a "bulk" of the carries against San Francisco on Sunday, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Peterson was elevated to the active roster on Saturday in the wake of the nagging injuries throughout the backfield. Nonetheless, there was already a chance he would be involved in some capacity against the 49ers after being signed to the practice squad earlier in the week. However, after the latest update, the veteran's DFS appeal is rising, although his services are best reserved for tournament play and for those looking to take a risk.

The Seattle Seahawks will activate running back Adrian Peterson off the practice squad to the active roster for Sunday's divisional clash with the San Francisco 49ers, according to a source. Peterson was added to the team's practice squad earlier this week, and he'll quickly join the active roster after he impressed the coaching staff in practice. Alex Collins (abdomen), Rashaad Penny (hamstring) and Travis Homer (calf) are all questionable to play in Week 13, but they were all able to practice this week and have a shot at being available on Sunday. With Collins averaging well under 4.0 yards per carry since Chris Carson (neck) went on Injured Reserve, the Seahawks could very well shake up their backfield this weekend as they look to spark their offense, but it's impossible to know who will benefit the most. Collins has been a low-upside, touchdown-dependent RB3/flex. DeeJay Dallas is in the mix as well.
