MINNEAPOLIS -- Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson has complied with the recommendations of a child protective services order filed last September in Hennepin County after Peterson was indicted in Texas for injuring his four-year-old son with a switch.

It's not known, however, whether the supervision and counseling Peterson has received in Minnesota will meet the NFL's requirements for the running back's reinstatement in April.

Hennepin County attorney Mike Freeman filed a petition on Sept. 19 that barred Peterson from use of corporal punishment, required him to cooperate with child protective services and follow the recommendations of a valid parenting assessment. Emily Cooper, Peterson's attorney, said on Tuesday that Peterson "has been in compliance with every part of the petition. We hope this will be resolved soon."

Peterson had told ESPN in December he traveled to Minnesota on Dec. 4 to reunite with his son for the first time since the incident. Peterson, according to the Hennepin County petition, is able to see his son in supervised visits.

"We met in (a) private office, where he could see his counselor," Peterson said on Dec. 12. "I sat in the office; he was walking down the hallway, saying, 'I'm here to see my dad -- where is he?' He was running to me, and he jumped in my arms. I know the counselor is thinking, 'This is not what I expected.' The kid jumped in my arms. He was rubbing my head, pulling me to go play with him."

What remains to be seen is whether the work Peterson has done complying with the county and rebuilding his relationship with his son will be enough to satisfy the NFL. When commissioner Roger Goodell suspended Peterson on Nov. 18, he required Peterson to meet by Dec. 1 with Dr. April Kuchuk, a New York University psychiatry professor and a forensic consultant in the New York City District Attorney's office, to design a counseling and treatment program.

The NFL Players Association has fought back against Goodell's ability to mandate counseling, arguing in a hearing before U.S. District Court Judge David Doty on Friday that specific treatment requirements are outside the scope of the commissioner's authority.

A league spokesman declined to comment on whether the work Peterson was doing in Minnesota would have any bearing on his reinstatement. Peterson cannot currently be reinstated until April 15, though the NFLPA is asking Doty to vacate the 2012 NFL MVP's suspension and have him reinstated immediately.

If Peterson is reinstated before the start of the new league year on March 10, he would ostensibly have a larger market should the Vikings decide to trade him. The running back is scheduled to count for $15.4 million against the salary cap next season, and told ESPN in December he didn't see why he should take a pay cut in 2015.

If the Vikings want to keep Peterson, who turns 30 in March, they will have to decide whether or not to approach him about restructuring his current contract.
