Vikings News: Adrian Peterson To Return Week 12 Against The Packers?

The Minnesota Vikings will be without running back Adrian Peterson once again for Sunday's game against the NFC North rival Chicago Bears.

However, it is looking like a distinct possibility that Peterson could be in the lineup for Week 12's division matchup with the Green Bay Packers

Here's Mike Florio of NBC's Pro Football Talk with his thoughts:

They won’t have him for Sunday, but he could be back in time for the Week 12 game against the Packers.  With a hearing set for Monday on the grievance filed against the NFL’s failure to reinstate Peterson from the Commissioner-Exempt list and the labor deal requiring a ruling within five days, Peterson could be back no later than Saturday, November 22.

Of course, the NFL also could expedite its consideration of Peterson’s penalty under the personal conduct policy, welcoming him back from the Commissioner-Exempt list with a suspension without pay.

Stay tuned.
