Adrian Peterson (35) released by Washington
 

I could definitely see Andy bringing him in for a season.

No

Yeah not going to happen here

Please no.

why would andy bring him in for any reason lol

CEH is better right now.

He wouldn’t

As a 3rd string (at best) RB for the Chiefs he would have to play special teams, which isn't happening.

Nope.

I would think he would backup CEH. I don't know that Darwin Thompson and Deandre Washington are anything more than ST players and the emergency RB.

no. Just...no.

I should put you over my knee and spank you with a switch for that comment.

Or maybe your right

Shady 2.0...

Do we think Darryl Williams is better?

As an OL, absolutely. I also think Darrel Williams is a better RB currently.

Cut from Washington and you think he can play here?? He is used up.. Dumb...

I think he sucks. We'll see how it plays out. I was hoping Washington would step in to that 2 spot.

NO!

JFC.. Why do people want every brokedick released from other teams??

I have no problem him being a backup.

Welp, we actually are interested.

Edit: scratch that, it's just guesswork based on the fact we had interest in Fournette.

As per?

No thanks.

I consider that he can pass pro probably better than any of our current guys and is a serviceable backup with experience in the league. We've got a young stud in CEH and a few ok guys behind him. If he takes a small deal for a chance at a ring, why not?

Can take or leave. Whatever Veach/Reid think is best.

We just won the super bowl and CP acts like we are paupers who should take rejects from bottom-feeder franchises

The starting vet RB just opted out. Having a HOF vet RB on the sideline for your 1st round pick to lean on and maybe take a few carrys isn't all that crazy.

Not only no, but hell no.

But don't we need a veteran RB to replace Lesean McCoy on the inactive list?

He had 900 yards rushing last year with a 4.3 yard average. He's not in the grave yet.

Sign em Brett!

JFC, why can't people read what is plainly stayed without jumping to conclusions?

I don't *WANT* him here. I'm posting an article relevant to the NFL then stated I could see if he was brought in for a look. You sound menstrual.

cancer

He will demand 25 mill and get hurt in game 3.

Im not saying we should make a go for Peterson, but Mitchell Schwartz, Damien Williams and Sammy Watkins were tying degrees of "bottom feeder rejects" at one point. Even guys like Ragland, Erving and Ogbah came from shithole organizations and contributed to our championship run.

Considering the two thumbs down you gave me .. its you that has the bleeding vagina..

Isn't he hanging around just to try to get out of debt? If memory serves (aka I don't feel like taking the time to look it up), he got scammed by his agent or something and is severely in debt. I think I saw somewhere that the salary he earned last year wasn't even enough to cover the annual interest on his debt.

No thank you.

I'm sure he'll get picked up somewhere but it looks like his days as a workhorse are over.

Guy's had a hell of a career, though. He's certainly one of the best pure rushers of all time. If he'd rounded out his game and been a better 3rd down back, he might widely be considered the best.

If not for the child abuse scandal, he could have seriously challenged Emmitt Smith's rushing yardage record.

Did we sign this mother****ing piece of shit yet???

I'm not down with bringing in AP but MJ and BCD have a point.

After CEH we have Williams. Thompson is garbage and Washington apparently can't even get any snaps over Thompson.

We've essentially got 2 RB's in the film room right now. That's not good.

I don't think we need him but struggling in Washington doesn't mean he's terrible. That team was a complete cluster **** last year. Including grudens bizarre mind games about how to use his players. He's still an interesting 2nd or 3rd option for the right team.

Is it possible that he's only getting cut because he's raping the same cheerleader that Dan Snyder is raping? That seems to be the system there.

CHIEFS should sign AP! Let's get these seniors a ring! McCoy. Now AP! Let's do this!~

Adrian Peterson appears to be having serious financial problems, despite making nearly $100 million in his NFL career
The Redskins running back seems to be in some financial trouble

By John Breech Jul 23, 2019 at 2:53 pm ET

Redskins running back Adrian Peterson has made nearly $100 million in his NFL career, but it appears he doesn't have much of that money left.

Over the past two years, Peterson's financial woes have led to at least three different lawsuits, with three different creditors using the legal system to try and get Peterson to pay off his debts. Of those three lawsuits, two have been filed in the past eight weeks.

According to Peterson's lawyer, Chase Carlson, the 34-year-old is having financial problems because he was trusting of the wrong people.

"The truth behind Adrian Peterson's current financial situation is more than is being reported at this time," Carlson said in a statement. "Because of ongoing legal matters, I am unable to go into detail, but I will say this is yet another situation of an athlete trusting the wrong people and being taken advantage of by those he trusted. Adrian and his family look forward to sharing further details when appropriate."

Although Carlson didn't offer any specific details on Peterson's financial situation, the three lawsuits do provide a small glimpse into the running back's money problems. The first lawsuit, which was filed in Minnesota in October 2017, accused Peterson of defaulting on a $2.4 million loan.

In that case, Peterson took out the loan in May 2016 and defaulted just five months later. The company that filed the lawsuit, Crown Bank, spent nearly a year trying to work things out with Peterson before taking him to court. Peterson was eventually ordered to repay the $600,000 that was left on the loan.

Peterson also took out a separate $4 million loan in April 2016 that he's being sued over. According to court records obtained by the Baltimore Business Journal, Peterson missed the first payment on the loan, which caused the interest rate to jump from 15 percent to 23 percent. Although Peterson did pay back some of the loan, the case went to court in June and that ended with a judge in Maryland ordering Peterson to pay back $2.4 million to the company that sued him, Democracy Capital Corp.

The third case involving Peterson is the biggest one yet. According to the Athletic, Peterson is being sued for allegedly defaulting on $5.2 million with a lender in Pennsylvania. Apparently, the running back took out the loan to try and pay off his other debts, but only ended up in more debt. When you include interest and legal fees, Peterson now allegedly owes more than $6.6 million on his $5.2 million loan.

Since NFL players only get paid during the season, Peterson won't be getting his weekly game check until September. The running back signed a two-year, $5.03 million deal with Washington back in March that included $1.5 million in guaranteed money.

Overall, Peterson has made a total of $99.22 million during his 12-year career, which means by the time the 2019 season ends, Peterson will have made more than $100 million during his career.

I'd be fine with it.

the tardery knows no end

Damn it, I shouldn't have laughed at this but I did.

Well, the money problem means he needs to get paid and probably won't take the low offer I think we'd want him at. If it comes down to the biggest check, no thanks.

A 35 y/o RB will take whatever he can get, money problems won't even factor into the equation. Who gives a damn what his financial situation is. The biggest check will be the vet min.

Money motivates a player? Color me shocked. What unique insight. Thanks Hummersdicks.

Birthday camels ain’t cheap

I'm so deep inside your head I can see the perverted dreams you have, you sick ****.

I thumbs'd you down because you went of crying about stuff that didn't even happen. You are like a toddler that had a nightmare wailing about shit that isn't real.

You so badly wanna be in another man's head. Freakin' weirdo.

Also got paid and did not play for at least 3 seasons

POS

It might explain why he's still trying to play when he's not good enough to be on The Washington Professional Football Franchise's roster

Rented a camel for a party

Not reading replies.

Common sense says NO!

Adrian's money issues are horrific. The man should be looking forward to a comfortable retirement in the very near future and instead he's looking at bankruptcy.

I'm curious why WAS cut him, considering what his production was over the last two seasons, and the fact that WAS cut Guice recently, they're basically down to a rookie and a room full of JAGs, unless I missed someone in there somewhere.

I kind of doubt he gets another chance somewhere else at his age, but according toNFL.com he did have a good camp, so maybe he's got enough jiuce left to make it onto some roster.

I wish him good luck.

Lease depreciating assets and buy appreciating ones.

The challenge is that I don't know if camels appreciate or depreciate.

You should just delete this before any one else see that you think that...

This answer works best for any situation really.

He wasn't struggling at all. He was the best RB they had coming into the season. Let's remember that WAS has been a complete disaster since the coming of Snyder. It wouldn't surprise me in the least if we look back around week 8 or so and find that WAS is much worse off without AP.

Man, that is tragic though. I can honestly say, I just don't understand how you can be 6 million in debt when you made 100 million. That's a LOT of camels...

Can you name any running back that was effective in the NFL after the age of 35?

Marcus Allen was 35 in 1995. He started 15 games in 1996 and while he didn't start in 1997, he did have 11 touchdowns.

This is true but Marcus had low mileage due to Al Davis having a grudge...

I guess there was bound to be one in the whole history of the league.

He had a lot more mileage than you might think.

Frank Gore is 37.

LOL I've gotta be honest, Hummersdicks is a good one. Well done.

No. Neither is Darrel. At RB anyway.

Here's the thing: outside of CEH (of which there is still a small question as he hasn't played a snap in the NFL yet), IF AP was a RB for the Chiefs in 2020, he'd be the best RB in the room, as a pure rusher. Period.

AP accumulated a combined 2250 yards since turning 33, 1,900 rushing, 350 receiving, and 13 TDs. Behind a bad OL, a rookie QB.

The question really is, how many RBs have been as effective as AP since turning 33?

Off the top of my head:

Marcus Allen
John Riggins
Emmitt Smith
Tony Dorsett (kind of?)
Frank Gore

And if you dig into the stats, AP's numbers, total yards, TDs, yards/carry were all better than both Marcus Allen and Emmitt Smith at the same age.

So at 33-35 years old, AP is leading some HOF-level company is what we're saying.

LeSean McCoy 2.0

Now now Peterson doesn't fumble that often.

They defecate

Better check that.

He would’ve been more useful than McCoy tbh. I heard Jax is in need of a rb

Wrong.

Yeah, that's the challenge in evaluating these guys. It's a really rarified sample, and if you're a running back who's top 20 in all time yards, it's hard to predict performance. You're by definition special and more or less unique, so every case will be different.

Washington’s rookie RB Gibson has been so impressive and that was the main reason they let Peterson go. Gibson might end up being the steal of the draft.
