Adrian Peterson didn't question the possibility he was the dad, but asked how he could help the situation and planned a trip to S.D. to meet the boy.
The running back was supposed to fly out to see them later this month.
When Peterson heard the news about the attack on the 2-year-old, allegedly by the mother's boyfriend, he dropped everything and flew out to Sioux Falls.
There, Adrian met the boy for the first time while he was on life support.
