Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson has had a lot of success in the National Football League. The man who currently holds the NFL record for most rushing yards in a single game is also a former NFL Most Valuable Player and a member of the 2,000 yard rushing club knows what it takes to be a star in the NFL. When he takes the field on Sunday against the San Diego Chargers, Peterson will have the opportunity to watch someone who has parts of his fame.

That man is rookie running back Melvin Gordon.
