Ex-NFL Star Adrian Peterson Completes 32 Hours for DWI

Former NFL running back Adrian Peterson is set to finalize his criminal case stemming from a 2025 DWI arrest. He recently completed more than 30 hours of community service between July 13 and July 30, fulfilling the court's requirement of 32 hours. Peterson engaged in various activities, including working at Meals on Wheels and assisting with youth and senior programs.

In March 2026, Peterson reached a plea agreement with Minnesota prosecutors. While the judge sentenced him to jail time, this sentence was suspended. He was also mandated to attend a victim impact panel and undergo an alcohol screening. The incident occurred in April 2025 when Peterson was stopped for speeding, traveling 83 mph in a 55 mph zone, with a reported BAC of .14.
