Minnesota Vikings RB Adrian Peterson rushed for 126 yards on 20 carries and scored two touchdowns in Week 3’s game against the San Diego Chargers. They were his first touchdowns since Nov. 24, 2013.
Footballguys View: Peterson looked like vintage Peterson in this one. All of the rust is knocked off and he’s back to being an elite RB1. Next week brings a stiff test at Denver.
