Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson has admitted that it would "hurt" the club if head coach Leslie Frazier were fired.

The Vikings have struggled this season just 11 months after from reaching the playoffs, as they have failed to find a starting-calibre quarterback to complement the reigning MVP of the NFL.

"I'm not an individual that's looking for dramatic change," Peterson told reporters. "It would hurt if he leaves."

Minnesota are 4-10-1 in their season going into the final week of the campaign.
