EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. — Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson has a torn meniscus in his right knee, coach Mike Zimmer said Monday.

The Vikings are still evaluating the injury and have not yet determined how much time he will miss. Zimmer initially announced the nature of the injury while recording his weekly appearance on a local radio show and told KFXN-FM that he has not yet ruled out Peterson for the game on Sunday against Carolina.

Peterson was meeting with team doctors and athletic trainers to discuss his options, which include surgery to address the injury.

“We are going through the evaluation process to figure out what the next procedure will be,” Zimmer told reporters during his weekly news conference. “We are still going through all the options.”

QB Jimmy Garoppolo, Patriots:

Patriots quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo had his right (throwing) shoulder rammed into the turf as he took a big hit from Dolphins LB Kiko Alonso in the second quarter. He walked to the locker room under his own power, but the team announced that he would miss the remainder of the game. Coach Bill Belichick said after the game that the QB is day-to-day. The team has not released an official update on Garoppolo’s conditions, but multiple reports say he suffered a sprained AC joint.

RB Danny Woodhead, Chargers:

The San Diego Chargers have placed versatile running back Danny Woodhead on season-ending injured reserve with a torn ACL in his right knee. Woodhead was hurt when he was tackled after a catch in the first quarter against Jacksonville.

LB DeMarcus Ware, Broncos:

Ware broke his forearm on Sunday, according to coach Gary Kubiak. He will undergo surgery on Tuesday and miss 4-5 weeks, Kubiak said. The injury occurred when Ware missed a sack of Andrew Luck and slammed into teammate Von Miller instead. Ware walked off the field in visible pain, clutching his arm.

QB Josh McCown, Browns:

Josh McCown is out indefinitely after sustaining a “deep sprain” in his left shoulder during Sunday’s loss to Baltimore. Coach Hue Jackson did not provide any specifics about the injury to McCown, so all that’s clear is that McCown won’t play this week.

WR Julio Jones, Falcons:

Falcons coach Dan Quinn says All-Pro receiver Julio Jones had an MRI on his right calf but is expected to be full speed for next Monday’s game at New Orleans. Jones was hurt when cornerback Sean Smith and safety Reggie Nelson fell on him after a 20-yard catch in the fourth quarter at Oakland. He did not play on Atlanta’s final possession.
