This had to be done. Still a chance he comes back once reality kicks in and no one gives him close to what he wants

But in all reality he will probably be bitter and take a similar offer to what the vikes make from another team

Ya I agree they couldn't pay him that much after missing 13 games last year and his age, but still love him and only want to see him in purple.

Ima feel worse then when Randy left atleast he was chasing a title ap only gonna leave for the
Money

Still a chance, statement from AP through Josina Anderson:

Statement to me from Adrian Peterson: "It’s been a great 10 years with the Minnesota Vikings. They know what I bring to the organization as a player, with my work ethic and dedication. I spoke with Rick Spielman this past weekend. The door is still open to find some common ground. I understand addressing the offensive line is one of their main priorities this offseason. In the meantime, I will explore my other options and see what path God leads me on. My main goal remains the same: to win a Super Bowl championship with a great team, which I also believe we have in Minnesota."

If ap really wants a title he'll sign else with a proven top tier team for a small chunk of change, i believe our defense is elite but the offense is kinda a joke and can't be fixed in a year or two by that time ap will be long gone.

It's called Public Relations, salsa. Even the players that don't make a fraction of an impact on the team such as AP still release statements similar to these. Meant to give the media + fans a feel-good story while simultaneously keeping all bridges intact.

I was trying to make worm feel better

I appreciate you

He's gone, go let him get his.

He gave the Vikings everything.

I know... always sad to see one of the best to wear the uniform leave the team. Perhaps you recall the last time a Packer great left town and eventually joined a rival?
