PHOENIX -- The agent for Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson said Monday that he doesn't think "it's in Adrian's best interest to play in Minnesota" this season and beyond.

It was the first time that agent Ben Dogra has spoken publicly on a standoff that has run nearly three months between the Vikings and their franchise player.

Vikings officials reiterated that Peterson is under contract and expected to remain with the team, but Dogra's comments -- which come days after he refused a meeting with general manager Rick Spielman -- suggests Peterson is digging in.
