"&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Adrian Peterson is in denial about his NFL future, a future that will not involve the Minnesota Vikings, according to a source with the team cited by ESPN's Chris Mortensen.&amp;nbsp;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\"Peterson still has not come to grips with the prospect that his 2014 season has all but officially ended,\" reports Mortensen, who says Minnesota does \" not foresee Peterson in [its] future.\"\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Vikings will also \"severely discipline\" Peterson, the source told Mortensen, even if Peterson reaches a plea deal in his pending child abuse case in Texas. The source did not specify what that discipline would be or when it would occur.&amp;nbsp;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Peterson wrote in a tweet Friday he asked to take a lie detector test, which team sources say serves as further indication Peterson \"doesn't get it.\"\r\n\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;!Note,I requested the Polygraph.
