Is Adrian Peterson human? Â There is no way that he came back from major knee surgery months earlier than predicted and is in line to break to the rushing record. Â What Adrian Peterson is one of the best comeback stories ever, not just of 2012. During the end of last season, AP suffered a terrible knee injury that resulted in him needing ACL injury. Â The injury came during a game against the Washington Redskins when Peterson ran a ball into end zone from the one yard line. Â Normally, the injury can sideline a player for over a year, however, AP vowed that he would be able to start in the first game of the season and he made good on his promise. Â The scariest part about his return? Â He might be better than he was before the injury! Â He is able to shake off defenders, out run defenders, and make these impressive lateral jukes to avoid defenders. Â It is incredible to watch this guy perform and it is inspirational for any athlete recovering from an injury that it is possible to play again, that is, with very hard work. Â If it were up to me, I think I would have to give both Comeback Player of the Year and MVP honors to this guy.
