Minnesota Vikings 11/20/2007 8:17 AMThe Pioneer Press reports RB Adrian Peterson hasn't been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Giants in New York, but the Vikings' No. 1 draft choice isn't expected back this week. "I'd say it's a long shot right now to get back there, but we'll see," coach Brad Childress said Monday. "He's surprised me before."
