    The Adrian Peterson comeback train continues to rumble full-speed ahead. Minnesota Vikings coach Leslie Frazier told reporters Sunday he wouldn't rule out Peterson playing in Friday's preseason game against the San Diego Chargers. "We'll probably just see how he does with some of the stuff that we'll give him and probably make a determination by Tuesday or Wednesday if we want to do any more," Frazier said, via 1500ESPN.com. Peterson returned to the practice field a week ago Sunday, and practiced in pads on Tuesday and Wednesday. But Peterson remains very much covered in bubble wrap at this stage, to the extent that Vikings defenders were warned last week they'd be cut if they made contact with the franchise star. Peterson said Sunday he'd be open to adding more physicality to practices this week. "To be honest with you, it really wouldn't matter either way," Peterson said. "I feel like I'll be ready to roll."
