According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, former Vikings’ RB Adrian Peterson is close to a deal with the New Orleans Saints. The deal, according to Rapoport, could be for more than three million dollars in 2017.
Peterson, 32, missed 13 games in 2016 due to injury.
Sources: #Saints & Adrian Peterson believed to be closing in on a deal that’d pay him $3M+ in ’17. Not done, but moving in that direction.

On Adrian Peterson: His expected salary from #Saints of $3.25M will be less than Mark Ingram makes in '17. NO is respectful of Ingram's role
