Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson has been named NFC Offensive Player of the Month for the month of November. This is his second time winning the monthly award, according to the Vikings' official Twitter account.

Peterson averaged 126.8 rushing yards per game and scored five touchdowns in November. His finest performance of the month was a 203-yard outing against the Oakland Raiders in Week 10. All Day's tough running helped the Vikings win four out of five games, allowing the team to enter December with an 8-3 record and sole possession of first place in the NFC North.

Peterson, 30, currently leads the NFL by more than 100 yards with 1,164 rushing yards on the season. With five games left, he's chasing a third career rushing title and his personal record of 2,097 yards (set in 2012).
