NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports Adrian Peterson is facing a six-game suspension, but the NFL will likely consider a combination of time served and loss of pay as his punishment.

Adrian Peterson could return in December (via @Rapsheet)
At the end of the day, Peterson could return as early as next Sunday.
The NFLPA has filed a grievance on behalf of Peterson, demanding immediate reinstatement based on an agreement in September when Peterson was placed on the Exempt List.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out.
