Adrian Peterson Say He's Looking to Break Emmitt Smith's Record, Win Super Bowl

Adrian Peterson will be 36 years old next month, but he doesn't plan to retire until he accomplishes some more goals.

The running back told TMZ Sports he still wants to win his first Super Bowl and catch Emmitt Smith for the most rushing yards all time:

"I'm going to keep playing, trying to chase the championship, and, God's willing, within the process of doing that, I'm able to catch Emmitt and pass him," Peterson said, via TMZ Sports.

After rushing for 604 yards with the Detroit Lions in 2020, Peterson still sits 3,535 yards behind Smith's all-time record of 18,355.
