Adrian Peterson will likely be the lead running back for the Detroit Lions for the foreseeable future.

Peterson had more snaps, rushes and yards than the rest of Detroit's running backs combined in Week 3.

The future Hall of Famer played 40 snaps in the Lions' 26-23 victory against the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday, getting 22 carries for 75 yards along with one catch for 10 yards.

"It's not anything that those guys are or aren't doing," Darrell Bevell said. "We're just trying to, again, accentuate their positives and put them in positions to be successful. You saw [D'Andre] Swift. His plays were a little bit down. We want to keep those up and get him more involved. The one play he catches, he has a nice catch-and-run, looks fast, looks explosive.

"It's just continuing to manage those guys and putting them in the best situations."
