Adrian Peterson's agent: 'We want out of Minnesota'

It doesn't look like the Adrian Peterson saga will conclude anytime soon.
Peterson's agent Ben Dogra said a return to the Minnesota Vikings isn't in his client's best interest and later proclaimed to USA TODAY Sports, "We want out of Minnesota."
Meanwhile, Vikings brass continues to maintain they're expecting Peterson back in 2015:
#Vikings GM Rick Spielman standing by the company line: Adrian Peterson's under contract, and they expect him to be a part of 2015 team.

Peterson is under contract in Minnesota for the next three seasons, so the Vikings own the leverage in this situation.
If they opt not to trade Peterson, the running back would have little recourse but to report to training camp or holdout while demanding he be moved.
Stay tuned.
