Radisson suspends sponsorship of Minnesota Vikings due to Adrian Peterson situation

Adrian PetersonThe Minnesota Vikings announced on Monday that Adrian Peterson, who was inactive for last weekend’s game against the New England Patriots, will participate in practice this week and play in the team’s next game against the New Orleans Saints.

Peterson was indicted for reckless or negligent injury to a child after allegedly beating his son with a switch and turned himself in to authorities on Saturday.

The Vikings running back issued a statement on Monday regarding the charges he faces. Later in the day, Radisson, a sponsor of the Vikings, issued one of their own.

Here’s the hotel chain’s statement from the press release:

“Radisson takes this matter very seriously particularly in light of our long-standing commitment to the protection of children. We are closely following the situation and effective immediately, Radisson is suspending its limited sponsorship of the Minnesota Vikings while we evaluate the facts and circumstances”
