Report: Adrian Peterson says he still hits son with belt. Could NFL punish him?

The Redskins will visit the Dallas Cowboys in the back’s home state of Texas on Thanksgiving.

And the Peterson may be enjoying a resurgent season. But new comments that he made to Bleacher Report may put his future NFL status in jeopardy.

Here’s what the ex-Oklahoma Sooners star told the outlet.

“I had to discipline my son and spank him the other day with a belt,” Peterson told Master Tesfatsion of Bleacher Report.

In 2014, Peterson, then a member of the Minnesota Vikings, was charged with felony child abuse.
