Adrian Peterson is once again in the NFC North.

According to Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network, the former Washington Football Team running back has signed a one-year deal with the Detroit Lions after being cut by Washington on Friday.

The Lions cut fifth-round pick Jason Huntley on Saturday, which opened a spot at running back. Peterson will join a backfield that also features Kerryon Johnson and D'Andre Swift.

The 35-year-old ran for 898 yards while scoring 5 TDs on 211 carries in 2019.
