The Vikings officially activated running back Adrian Peterson on Saturday morning.
Peterson had returned to practice this week. He was placed on the injured-reserve list after tearing his meniscus in September.
Peterson has proven he heals faster than most do, so when he said this week he wanted to play and not wait until next week it was a pretty good sign he felt good enough to be cleared and to play Sunday vs. the Colts.
Defensive tackle Toby Johnson was waived to make room for Peterson on the roster.
