Adrian Peterson leaves practice with apparent leg injury; appears to be fine

Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson left practice Tuesday with an apparent leg injury, according to multiple reports.

The injury is not considered severe and "everything appears to be fine," a team source told Matt Vensel of startribune.com. It's being called a minor thigh injury at this point.

Teammates also relayed that Peterson said he is OK and will most likely practice Wednesday.

"He got tangled up and a defender fell on him," running back Jerick McKinnon said, "but he said he was all right."

The six-time Pro Bowler is returning from missing 15 games due to suspension in 2014 and is not expected to play in the preseason.
