The Minnesota Vikings expect Adrian Peterson, their star running back, to be recovered from left knee surgery from two torn ligaments in time to start the 2012 season.
AP tore his ACL and MCL when he was hit in the side of the knee by DeJon Gomes in the third quarter Saturday in a 33-26 win at Washington. An MRI revealed the ligament tears and meniscus damage. Peterson will undergo surgery within the next seven to ten days.
Peterson signed a seven-year, $100-million contract extension before the first week of the season.
