Redskins bring back Adrian Peterson on 2020 team-option

We all expected it to happen, but it appears that the Washingon Redskins will officially be bringing back veteran running back Adrian Peterson for the 2020 season.

At age 35, Peterson had a team option on his contract worth $3 million that the Redskins were able to pass on if they wished, but his production over the past couple of years makes it a pretty easy decision. Since coming to Washington in 2018, AP has run for 12 touchdowns and 1,940 total yards, while also being called upon to shoulder the load a number of times with Derrius Guice on the IR.

Now, going into 2020, Washington will look to have their full stable of running backs healthy, and Peterson will be able to keep doing what he does.
