Adrian Peterson would 'definitely be open' to Saints return

SmashMouth · 05-10-2018, 10:19 PM

Future Hall of Fame running back Adrian Peterson told NFL.com that he'd "definitely be open" to returning to the New Orleans Saints.

In an interview with NFL.com's Tom Pelissero, Peterson, 33, talks about his desire to return to the field and that, despite his less than stellar stint in New Orleans, he's open to returning to the team.

Square peg in a round hole...

does AP have outstanding tax debt or something? He's like an old boxer who keeps going for like 6 years too long.

Hahahahaha!

33 years of age, healthy as a horse & damn near washed up.

He's done.

There are other reclamation projects that are free agents (Demarco Murray, possibly a Weight Watchers Eddie Lacy) that have lower age/mileage than AP. AP is a legend, but it doesn't make sense to retry the reclamation project that already didn't work.

I'm honestly surprised he would even consider the Saints after last year's experiment. Guess there are no other offers coming his way. He was great in his day, but even in his prime I don't think he would have suited the Saints offense.

I’m sure Payton would rather stick a Q-Tip in his ear past the point of resistance.
