Hearing meniscus options Adrian Peterson & #Vikings are weighing: partial repair & minimum 4 wk layup, or full repair w/ min 4 month layup.
The 4 month lay-up would see him miss the regular season, but be available for a playoff run. 4 week has a very high chance of reinjury which would see him miss the season...the 4 weeks would see him back after the bye vs Eagles (If they put him to PUP he would miss 2 additional games)...not good news, but will report more once this is confirmed...
While on this, which other teams in the NFL could lose their starting QB & RB and still be considered true Playoff contenders?
EDIT: Peterson also weighing impact of meniscus surgery on career. Full repair now could give him a few more yrs. Partial repair is risky
