NFL Rumors: Adrian Peterson Likely Won’t Sign With Team Before Draft
Share this: Adrian Peterson’s future still hangs in the balance, and the running back’s situation might not change for at least a few more weeks. NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport reported Thursday that Peterson is not expected to sign with a team before the 2017 NFL Draft barring a dramatic shift. The draft kicks off in two weeks on April 27. Teams involved will continue to monitor Peterson’s status, according to Rapoport, but it’ll be interesting to see how teams needing a running back will approach the draft and whether it’ll impact the 32-year-old’s market, which apparently isn’t all that robust to begin with. Peterson, who has spent his entire 10-year career with the Minnesota Vikings, has met with the New England Patriots and New
David Coulthard Thinks Lewis Hamilton Could Say ‘F—k It,’ Leave F1
Nico Rosberg’s battle with Lewis Hamilton on the way to winning the 2016 Formula One driver championship was so mentally taxing the German retired just weeks after the final race. However, the up-and-down season took its toll on Hamilton too, and David Coulthard reportedly thinks he could make a similarly dramatic exit from the sport. The former F1 driver and commentator for the U.K.’s Channel 4 told Express he thinks the Mercedes-AMG Petronas is becoming disinterested with the series, and could announce his retirement even before the season ends. “It wouldn’t take much for him to say, for want of a better word, ‘F–k it. Thank you, I’m ... NESN.com

Tom Brady Opens Up About Donald Trump Friendship, Doesn’t Know Why It’s Big Deal
Share this: There really isn’t a lot of controversy surrounding the New England Patriots’ record ninth Super Bowl appearance, but that doesn’t mean the talk leading up to Super Bowl LI will be centered squarely on football. Given the political atmosphere in the country, paired with the Patriots’ unquestionable links to President Donald Trump, it’s safe to assume his name might come up a time or two in the two weeks leading up to the game in Houston. Patriots quarterback Tom Brady has a longstanding friendship with the new president, dating far back before Trump even considered a presidential run. That friendship really came to the forefront when Brady placed a “Make America Great Again” hat in his locker for the world to
