Free agent running back Adrian Peterson used Twitter to try to silence the various reports indicating that his high financial demands are the reason he still doesn’t have a job.
Peterson wrote on Twitter Friday evening that he’s unsigned because he hasn’t found the best fit for his talents and a team that can contend for a Super Bowl title.

This is clearly a direct response to this report that was meant to explain Peterson’s lack of appeal to teams thus far. Realistically, money is probably a factor. The running back market in general hasn’t taken off, and it’s understandable that the 32-year-old Peterson has received little interest.
