Adrian Peterson is in some legal hot water, with authorities in Fort Bend County, Texas, issuing warrants in his name.
According to USA Today, the warrants are out as a result of the former NFL MVP failing to appear in court for two separate child support cases.
“The current legal case is related to a misunderstanding regarding Adrian’s court appearances as it relates to child support, and he is actively working with his legal team to resolve this matter as quickly as possible,” Peterson’s publicist Denise White told the publication.
“He is committed to clearing up this situation and moving forward positively.”
Adrian Peterson Has Had Some Financial Woes Despite All The Money He Earned During His Career
Peterson earned over $100 million playing football from 2007-2021. But he has had some debt issues since retiring. Court records from February showed he had not paid a penny of the $8.3 million he owed to DeAngelo Vehicle Sales LLC despite an order to pay over a prior three-year period.
The Former Vikings running back was also ordered to pay $2.4 million to a creditor in 2019, as well as a Minnesota bank in 2018.
NFL Sends Strong Message To Congress, Calls For Immediate Action After “Drones” & “UFOs” Spotted Flying Over Team’s Stadium

With Super Bowl 59 approaching, the NFL is calling for Congress to put an end to the ongoing U.S. drone invasion.
The U.S. drone invasion is one of the more mysterious and baffling sagas of 2024. Since November, there have been numerous drones spotted across the Northeast in multiple states, including New York, Ohio, New Jersey and Pennsylvania.
Some of these drones have flown over U.S. military bases. Government officials continue to investigate, though the Pentagon stated that most drones you see in the air are merely for recreational use and nothing sinister.
As the NFL nears the conclusion of the 2024 season, the league wants Congress to take action against the U.S. drone invasion, fearing that the flying objects will become an issue at football games.
“The time for us to act on this is now,” NFL chief security officer Cathy Lanier said, per Sierra Fox of FOX 5 DC.. “We don’t want to wait until something bad happens.”
U.S. Drone Invasion Can’t Be A Problem In Super Bowl 59
Super Bowl 59 will be played inside the New Orleans Saints’ home venue, the Caesars Superdome, on Feb. 9. As the venue is a dome with a roof over top, flying drones won’t be an issue at the big game.
But of course, most NFL stadiums don’t have a roof. So the U.S. drone invasion can still be a cause of concern for the clubs who play outdoors without roof protection, such as the Kansas City Chiefs, Buffalo Bills, Philadelphia Eagles and Baltimore Ravens.
