Adrian Peterson had an interesting season during 2014 despite not setting foot on the football field for any of Minnesota's games. Peterson was on the inactive list or suspended for the entire season during and following the investigation into child abuse charges brought against Peterson.

While Peterson eventually was not convicted of felony charges because he agreed to a plea deal that reduced his charges down, he was still suspended by the league after the legal matters were settled. Peterson appealed his suspension, but it was upheld by the league.
According to TMZ, Peterson was also in federal court last week to try and get the suspension overturned, which would allow Peterson to be reinstated immediately.

The hearing ended without a resolution, but it will continue on Monday. Peterson says that he has been working out twice a day since November, and he will be ready to play or practice as soon as he is allowed to resume participation in team activities.
Peterson debated quitting football altogether after he was suspended, but he has since decided that he will view this latest setback with the same approach that he took when he was recovering from his ACL injury. All he did when he came back from that was have one of the best seasons by a running back in the history of the NFL.
Peterson did show off some speed during a recent footrace with comedian Kevin Hart. Peterson spotted Hart five yards off the bat, but it really did not make much difference.
