Adrian Peterson Ordered To Turn Over Assets For Debt

Former NFL running back Adrian Peterson has been ordered by a Texas judge to turn over personal assets to help pay a debt that has ballooned to more than $12 million. The debt stems from a lawsuit filed against Peterson over a $5.2 million loan he failed to repay to a Pennsylvania lending company, which has since more than doubled due to interest and fees.

A court-appointed receiver, Robert Berleth, has been tasked with collecting money from Peterson as part of the judgment. Berleth requested constables to accompany him to Peterson's home in the Houston suburb of Missouri City to inventory assets that can be sold off to repay the debt.
