Minnesota Vikings RB Toby Gerhart said he thinks RB Adrian Peterson (knee) will be ready to play in Week 1. ‘I think (Adrian Peterson) will (play in the opener),’ Gerhart said. ‘You can never be surprised with Adrian. The way he comes to work every day, the way he pushes himself – he was flying around, straight-line speed, moving out there, racing Percy up the hill, doing conditioning stuff … I haven’t seen him in a couple weeks now, but I’m sure he’s continued to make leaps and bounds in progress, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s ready. You can never count Adrian out.’
