The last time Adrian Peterson was at the Vikings facility was Sept. 12, before news broke later that day he had been indicted on a felony charge of child abuse. Six months later, one Minnesota player is working out regularly with the star running back.

Defensive end Tom Johnson told SiriusXMNFL Radio on Sunday he’s been working out with Peterson in Houston, most recently last Thursday. He said Peterson, who missed the final 15 games last season, is in great shape.

“I’d say he’s one of the strongest guys pound for pound I’ve seen,’’ Johnson said. “You see him put 500 pounds on the squat and just do it like it ain’t nothing. … He looks like he’s a little more lean. You can tell that’s he’s been doing a lot of workouts. … He looks like he’s been grinding the whole time (since last September), so he looks a little lean, still ripped up, but he’s always been that.’’
