Vikings are handling Dalvin Cook with care

Adrian Peterson was isolated and upset. About four months removed from tearing anterior cruciate and medial collateral ligaments in his left knee, Peterson was upset — in April — that rookie tight end Kyle Rudolph and the rest of the receivers weren’t sprinting fast enough during half-gassers, a conditioning drill where players run from one sideline to the other and back.

“So, he came down from his rehab session and he ran with the team,” Rudolph recalled Thursday. “Adrian just, he kind of defied modern medicine with his recovery.”
