Vikings running back Adrian Peterson is expected to play against the Lions today in Detroit, according to NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport. AP had been listed as questionable with an illness.
The Vikings' running back had been listed as probable to play with a finger injury. Peterson was limited in practice on Wednesday and Thursday, but was full go on Friday and appeared fine to play.
Peterson was subsequently downgraded to questionable on Saturday.
The Vikings' official Twitter feed showed the team boarding a plane leaving for Detroit hours before announcing Peterson was downgraded, so we presume he made the trip and will receive treatment overnight.
