The Facts:
Peterson has made enough progress in rehabilitating his injured right knee that he is expected to take part in at least a portion of practice today at Winter Park. While this does not mean he will play Sunday against the New York Giants, it is a highly encouraging sign that Peterson will be back on the field on the short end of his recovery timetable.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Peterson tore the lateral collateral ligament of his right knee Nov. 11 at Green Bay. He missed last Sunday’s 29-22 victory against Oakland. Monday, coach Brad Childress said it was a “longshot” for Peterson to play against the Giants, but that he couldn’t make a decision for sure until Peterson got back on the practice field. That will happen today, but we'd advise against getting your hopes too high. Most observers still expect an early December return.
