Former Vikings RB Adrian Peterson returns to face Minnesota Oct 24th

As if the Vikings October 24th game didn't already have enough story lines...

• Thursday Night Football at home
• Case Keenum returns to face the Vikings
• Kirk Cousins squares off against his former team

As if that wasn't enough, lest we not forget that former Vikings great, running back Adrian Peterson is still the starting back in Washington and he had a pretty good season in 2018!

It was 1,042 yards and 7 touchdowns last season for a resurgent performance from the 34 year old running back and he'll square off against his former team for the first time as a starter.

Peterson did face the Vikings once with the Saints in 2017 but it didn't exactly go his way with just 6 carries for 18 yards and an awkward shouting match with his coach on the sidelines.
