Vikings wide receiver Percy Harvin was carted off the practice field on Saturday with an undisclosed injury, the Star Tribune is reporting. Earlier in practice, Harvin caught a pass from quarterback Tarvaris Jackson in tight coverage. He lost his helmet on the play, fell to the ground, and tried to run off the field. It's unknown if that contributed to the injury.

Brett Favre's wife has reportedly renewed her membership at Lifetime Fitness, which may be a sign that he will return to the Vikings this season. Favre remains noncommittal about his intentions.

The Vikings have agreed to terms with second round pick Chris Cook. The deal for the cornerback will be over four seasons. Cook was the 34th overall pick out of Virginia.

Brett Favre joked in an interview with USA Today this week that he could see himself playing football until the age of 50. "If you do enough patchwork, eventually you've got to get a new one," said Favre, laughing about the fact he has had three surgeries on his left ankle during the course of his 19-year NFL career. "You gotta quit sometime. Then again, maybe I will be doing this when I'm 50 years old, who knows?" Favre will turn 41 on Oct. 10 and hasn't yet announced whether he'll play for Minnesota this season.

Vikings coach Brad Childress isn't concerned with how long Brett Favre takes to decide whether or not he'll return to the team. Childress said Favre needs "two or three weeks" of camp to prepare. "Close to the same period as last year," he said. Given the 2-3 week timetable, it's possible Favre could return after the second preseason game Aug. 22 in San Francisco.

Vikings running back Adrian Peterson says he'll report to training camp on time. Peterson says he didn't miss Minnesota's minicamp because of unhappiness with his contract. "That was not the reason at all," Peterson said emphatically. Peterson has two years remaining on his contract and is set to make about $6.5 million this season and possibly as much as $13 million with escalators in 2011. "Do I want a new contract?" Peterson said. "Anytime you're dealing with a business, you've got your business side to it and then you've got your side where you've got to go out and perform. With that being said, I focus on what I have to do and that's preparing myself for the season. I let my agents take care of everything else. I am excited about training camp and I'm ready to get going. I'm sure I'm more pumped up to get going than the coaches."

Vikings running back Adrian Peterson believes he needs Brett Favre to return as the team's quarterback in order to win a Super Bowl ring. "I saw him down in L.A. for the first time this offseason," Peterson told The Oklahoman. "Looking in his eyes, I got the sense he was coming back. I'll be going down to his house, telling him, 'Favre, I need you back.' "I grew up watching Favre. I'm as big a fan of his as the people that's watching him. People in Green Bay that's been watching him all his life. Just to have the opportunity to play with him and come up short, it would definitely feel good (if he came back) this year (and we) hoisted up that trophy (together) in Dallas, Texas."

Brett Favre's agent, Bus Cook, referred to the quarterback as a "drama queen" in a recent article in Men's Journal. Favre is taking exception to the way the comments were portrayed. "The guy spent a day with us," Favre explained to Mississippi television station WDAM of author Stephen Rodrick. "I filmed the Wrangler commercial that day. We joked around, really, it was a joking around day. You know Bus [Cook]. You know me. We opened up our family lives to him. I guess the lesson to be learned in all that is ... I have to even say it. It's just that you can't trust anybody. Because, that's not the way I was raised."

Brett Favre says he hasn't established a deadline for his decision on whether or not to return to the Vikings this coming season. "The deadline? I don't know," Favre said. "There obviously comes a point where you've probably gone too far, where you just have to move on. He hopes I make the right decision for myself, one way or the other." Favre was referring to Vikings head coach Brad Childress. He skipped training camp last week and joined Minnesota after their first preseason game.

Brad Childress was in Hattiesburg, Mississippi on Monday meeting with Brett Favre. Childress would not comment on camera about his visit but said, "You can fill in the blanks." Childress arrived in Hattiesburg Sunday night and said he did not know how long he would stay in Mississippi. Favre is undecided about whether or not he will return to the Vikings for the 2010 season.
