Adrian Peterson is looking for a job and wants NFL teams to know he isn't washed up as he's about to turn 32.

Peterson, whose $18 million option for next season was declined by the Minnesota Vikings this week, posted video of himself working out to prove he's "not on a decline, rather an incline!"

Now to be fair, we have no idea when this video was recorded. But even assuming that it's recent, it still doesn't show what we figure teams want to see: Peterson running and cutting. There's not much footage of that from last season, when a torn meniscus in his right knee limited him to three games.

But there's bound to be interest in the seven-time Pro Bowler, who led the league in rushing as recently as 2015 (1,485 yards, 11 TDs).
