Adrian Peterson has finally responded to a bombshell report that he misused funds from his charity for his own personal use.
According to the Minneapolis Star-Tribune, the football player is being accused of exploiting donations from his All Day Foundation, which is supposed to help at-risk children, particularly girls. Amongst the shocking allegations includes using the money for an orgy of "drinking, arguing and sex" at a hotel with six other people.
The star running back took to Twitter to write, "It's SAD how people these days will believe anything reported by media sources that don't take the time to be GREAT!!!" He then added, "Just in-general!"

The Minnesota Vikings veteran is still dealing with allegations levied on him that he abused his son. He was indicted last month in North Montgomery County, Texas on charges of reckless or negligent injury to a child.
All of these allegations are most likely the nail in coffin for the Vikings player who "is in denial" about his future in the NFL, according to ESPN.
"Several league sources say Adrian Peterson has not come to grips with the fact that his 2014 has all but officially ended," ESPN's Chris Mortensen said. "His goal to break Emmitt Smith's all-time rushing record is now a fading dream. And his future is in doubt after being indicted for these child abuse charges related to inflicting injuries on his four-year old son."
The Vikings seemingly also "themselves do not foresee Peterson in their future."
Do you think will Adrian be back in the NFL or is his career over?
