The LCL tear that star rookie Adrian Peterson sustained was confirmed via MRI, but this injury should not limit Peterson for more than a few weeks. Some reports show him returning in Week 12, but with such an injury, Week 13 or even Week 14 are better bets. The good news for Peterson owners is that if they make the playoffs in their league they should definitely have him back. Chester Taylor will take the carries with Peterson out. He is a good play in quite a few situations.
