It seems the Green Bay Packers who couldn't plug the hole in their backfield, have come up with a solution. Some NFL trade rumors are running around that they are keeping an eye on Adrian Peterson. The running back is formerly with the Minnesota Vikings but is now a free agent. Some pundits believe that the Packers might sign Peterson as a form of revenge.
Peterson Can Be The Solution To The Packers' Backfield Woes
NFL fans will recall that Brett Favre went to the Vikings and left the Packers. Now, according to the latest NFL trade rumors, the Packers are getting Peterson, who has long been the face of the Vikings. Peterson, according to ESPN's Rob Demovsky, is one of the Packers' big options to man their backfield.
Packers fans may not see the signing Peterson as a good move for the team. The current state of health of the running back is questionable. However, as some NFL trade rumors would have it, if Peterson gets a clean bill of health, he can provide the right solution to the Packers' backfield problem.
The Carolina Panthers Joining The Fray For Rono?
Meanwhile, Dallas Cowboys' fans shouldn't be discouraged by the seeming inactivity shown by their team during the offseason. In reality, the Cowboys have accomplished a few things that will improve their performance this season. However, they didn't do anything about the NFL trade rumors relating to Tony Rono.
Talks of Rono's release were the fodder of many NFL trade rumors in the recent past. There were speculations that he will be traded to Houston Texas or the Denver Broncos but nothing ever materialized. Now, there are rumors that the Carolina Panthers are getting involved as well.
Current NFL trade rumors suggest that Rono will not be released. In that case, free agency is the next option. It seems that a trade is more likely at this point than a release. Based on recent developments, apart from the Broncos and Texas, the Panthers may be included in the Cowboys' trading table for Rono.
