Adrian Peterson From Redskins Not Performing Versing Eagles.

The Redskins resurrected Adrian Petersons career, then handed him a big new contract.

Sources say that Peterson is expected to be a surprise inactive as the Redskins play the Eagles today.

After gaining 1,042 yards last year, averaging 4.2 yards per rush in a comeback season, Peterson is slated to be watching from the sidelines.

Second-year back Derrius Guice will be the starter, and coach Jay Gruden has been outspoken about how much of a focal point Guice will be.
