Adrian Peterson Daily Fantasy News, Rankings, Projections

Adrian Peterson will be elevated from practice squad for Sunday's game against the San Francisco 49ers. It will be interesting to see how much of a role Peterson plays in a crowded backfield. The Seahawks currently have four running backs on their active roster though three are listed questionable for tomorrow's game. Regardless of who is active it will be best to avoid playing the Seattle backfield in DFS contests until roles become more defined.

Adrian Peterson has been waived by the Tennessee Titans ahead of their matchup with the New England Patriots on Sunday. Peterson saw his role in the backfield evaporate due to the emergence of D'Onta Foreman as the top early down back and Jeremy McNichols and Dontrell Hilliard handling the passing down work. It remains to be seen if Peterson will find another team but it is probably best to avoid the Titans backfield in DFS contests at this point until the dust settles and roles become more defined.

Adrian Peterson has been signed to the active roster ahead of the Titans matchup with the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday night. This was the expected move after he was signed to the practice squad, but the question still remains how many snaps he will see on Sunday night after joining the team Tuesday. Jeremy McNichols is expected to lead the backfield this week because he has been on the team the whole year but Peterson is still expected to see some of the rushing work. Peterson and McNichols will both be interesting plays to consider on the showdown slate this Sunday but we truly won't know how this backfield will be split until next week at the earliest.

After working out with Tennessee earlier in the day, Adrian Peterson will be signed by the Titans to the practice squad and the expectation is that he will be elevated to the active roster ahead of the Titans game against the Rams this Sunday night. This move was made after the news of Derrick Henry's foot surgery was made public (expected to miss 6-10 weeks). It remains to be seen exactly how the Titans backfield will shake out but Peterson should play a large role in it. It will likely be some sort of split between Peterson and Jeremy McNichols but it will be important to monitor if any more news comes out from the Titans this week regarding what the split will look like. Right now, it seems as though Peterson would handle most of the carries and early down work while McNichols should handle most of the passing down work.

Peterson was limited Thursday, but he practiced fully Friday. He does not have an injury designation and will play Sunday.

Quinn and Peterson did not practice Thursday. Peterson typically takes at least one day of rest each week, so he is still expected to play Sunday. Quinn not practicing with a concussion puts him on track to not be available this week.

Guice's season is over, as the Redskins are placing him on injured reserve. This move should boost Adrian Peterson's carries the most of the Redskins' RBs.
