Chip Scoggins, of the Minneapolis Star Tribune, reports Minnesota Vikings RB Adrian Peterson said he will be working on his fumbling issues this offseason by trying to hold the ball higher.

| NFL | Favre conflicted about return :: Thu Jul 23, 2009 7:10 pm |
Ed Werder, of ESPN.com, reports free-agent QB Brett Favre (Jets) remains conflicted about whether to sign with the Minnesota Vikings or retire, according to sources. The decision has become harder for Favre because Vikings RB Adrian Peterson, DE Jared Allen and OG Steve Hutchinson have been some of the players trying to talk Favre into signing. Favre probably would have decided against playing this season if the Vikings players did not call him, according to a source. A source said Favre is starting to feel a sense of obligation to the Vikings. Favre is still unresolved about whether he will be able to hold up for 16 regular season games while maintaining the standard of performance he expects from himself. The two sides have negotiated a one-year deal worth around $10 million if Favre decides to play for the Vikings.
