NFL training camps are right around the corner, and one of the first teams that will open camp are the Minnesota Vikings. With the NFL Hall of Fame Game slated for Saturday, August 9, the Vikings will break camp on Saturday, July 26 with players reporting the day before. For the 50th straight year, the Vikings will hold training camp at Minnesota State University in Mankato.
The big news broke several days before camp, when the team announced that the team and Adrian Peterson agreed to restructure his massive contract. Due in the region of $47 million over the next three seasons, Peterson had some of this money converted from a salary to a signing bonus, guaranteeing Peterson more money and decreasing the chances he gets cut during the contract.
How much of a distraction, if any, will Peterson be at camp?
Below is the schedule for Vikings training camp. All times are local.
