Minnesota Vikings tailback Adrian Peterson had surgery Thursday to repair a sports hernia, the team announced.
It’s not clear when the injury occurred during Peterson’s MVP season, which also included participation in the Pro Bowl. But the Vikings began listing Peterson on their injury report with an “abdomen” injury before their Week 15 game at the St. Louis Rams.
Peterson ran for 212 yards in that game, was limited to 86 yards the following week at the Houston Texans and then had 199 against the Green Bay Packers in Week 16. He finished the season with 2,097 yards, the second most in NFL history.
The team said in a statement that it expects “a speedy recovery” and that no long-term issues are expected.
