Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson is on the verge of being arrested again after he admitted to using drugs in violation of his bond.

Court records provided by ESPN show that, while submitting a urine sample Wednesday, Peterson admitted he had smoked weed before the test.

After learning of the confession, the Montgomery County district attorney asked the judge involved in Peterson's case to set aside his $15,000 bond and arrest him again.
