Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson has claimed that he feels back to his best form following his display in his side's win over the San Diego Chargers.
The 30-year-old missed the majority of last season when he was suspended by the NFL after pleading no contest to causing reckless or negligent injury to his four-year-old son.
Peterson was reinstated ahead of the campaign, but struggled in the Vikings' defeat to the San Francisco 49ers.
However, he has bounced back with two performances of over 100 yards in his side's back-to-back victories over the Detroit Lions and the Chargers.
"My legs felt lighter today and just the preparation throughout the week helped with that, but I felt good," Peterson told reporters
"The body felt good. My mind was in a great place, and yeah, I think I'm back."
Peterson scored his first two touchdowns of the season in the win over the Chargers.
