The Minnesota Vikings have had two great running backs in their history: Adrian Peterson and Chuck Foreman.
Foreman, 64, who retired after the 1980 season, has watched Peterson, 30, closely at training camp in Mankato and subsequent practices in Eden Prairie. After missing all of last season except an opening game victory over St. Louis due to suspension for reckless assault of his 4-year-old son, Peterson returns to the field against the San Francisco 49ers in Santa Clara, Calif., on "Monday Night Football."
Foreman predicts a big game for Peterson.
"You don't forget how to run," Foreman said.
