Adrian Peterson Domestic Violence

Many people know Adrian Peterson (a running back for the Minnesota Vikings #28) as the best running back in the NFL today. AP has the most respect as a halfback when he came off of an ACL tear two years ago, winning MVP and nearly breaking the single year rushing record. The former MVP has committed a domestic violence case to his own four year old son. The Vikings had deactivated Peterson for their game against the New England Patriots after he turned himself in to authorities on accounts of a "beating or "whooping" of his four year old son. 
Peterson had left bruises on his child's legs and genitals, according to police reports.
Many fans have been asking where do the Vikings go now after losing their star player. Should they trade him or should they wait until he is reinstated. They will more than likely look at Cordarerlle Patterson, the second year pro out of Tennessee. Patterson has proven that he is a versatile on special teams, receiving and even running the football. Many players in the league want him to play such as, Reggie Bush of the Detroit Lions and teammate Captain Munnerlyn. Many people like the Minnesota governor, owner Zygi Wilf, and Viking legend Fran Tarkenton believe he should be suspended indefinitely.  
As a fan of football, I believe AP deserves to play football. The NFL might be reinstating Ray Rice and he beat his wife in an elevator! There have been many drug cases with players like Josh Gordan, Aldon Smith and Wes Welker and they will get to play. In Peterson's defense, back then he got beat a lot as a kid. He got whipped, beaten, and abused regularly by his father. All fans of AP can do is sit back, pray and wait for Peterson, ("All Day")  return to the game we all love.
