The Minnesota Vikings released safety Cedric Thompson, tackle Marquis Lucas and defensive tackle Sterling Bailey on Thursday.

The moves were made ahead of rookie camp, which begins on Friday.

Thompson, who signed a futures contract with Minnesota in January, was a fifth-round selection of the Miami Dolphins in the 2015 draft. The 24-year-old has yet to play in an NFL regular-season game.

Lucas, 24, signed with the Vikings' practice squad in December after being released by the Buffalo Bills in September.

Bailey, 24, was added to Minnesota's practice squad in October after stints with the Seattle Seahawks and Indianapolis Colts.

Hey Glenn,

This may surprise you BUT, they never heard of you either.

In an interview posted on the Saints’ website, Peterson referenced that old back-and-forth.

“I can let them know (that) when I was doing that talking, telling them, ‘Hey, I’ll hit you guys for 150 or 200 yards,’ that I wasn’t just talking,” he said. “They’ll see.”

When first asked about facing the Vikings, Peterson joked, “Revenge.”

“It’s going to be exciting,’’ he said. “You know, it’s just ironic. When the schedule came out and I saw that, I was like, ‘Wow, this is meant to be.’ So many great memories down there in Minnesota. Great fan base. They supported me through everything, throughout my career, so just to embrace the love once I get there will be exciting.’’

Peterson, 32, the leading rusher in Vikings history with 11,747 yards, said he doesn’t even know where the visiting locker room is at U.S. Bank Stadium.

“I’m looking forward to going against my defense, guys that I’ve been practicing against for so long, hearing them yack about, ‘You couldn’t do this against me, against us,’ ” Peterson said.
