Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson is currently inactive due to his ongoing child abuse case, but now the Pro Bowler faces a new charge from inside his own charity.
According to a report by The Minnesota Star Tribune, a significant amount of money from Adrian Peterson’s All Day Foundation was used for ‘unknown’ reasons.

“The charity’s 2011 financial report showed $247,064 in total revenue, and listed just three organizations that received money. A fourth outlay, entitled simply “clothing for needy families,” listed “unknown” for the number of recipients.
In 2009, the charity said its largest gift, $70,000, went to Straight From the Heart Ministries in Laurel, Md. But Donna Farley, president and founder of the Maryland organization, said it never received any money from Peterson’s foundation. “There have been no outside [contributions] other than people in my own circle,” said Farley. “Adrian Peterson — definitely not.”
The report states that Peterson used the money to fund a sexual relationship with up to four different women at the same time. The report has not been confirmed, but it would be another black eye for the Vikings running back as he attempts to rehab his public image.

Peterson isn't expected to play for the Vikings again this season and will most likely not play for them ever again. Peterson rushed for 75 yards on 21 carries in his lone start for the Vikings this season.
