Adam Thielen Absent At Practice Thursday
5 years agoMinnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen (hamstring) watched practice off to the side for the second straight day on Thursday. Thielen is not expected to play on Sunday night against the Cowboys after he aggravated his hamstring in the Week 9 loss to the Chiefs. There's also a chance the Vikings hold Thielen out next week against the Broncos with their Week 12 bye on the horizon. With Thielen out, Stefon Diggs will be the undisputed top target. He should have more than just one catch like he did last week, but Dallas will likely double team him in the absence of Thielen. Diggs is on the WR1/2 radar for the expected volume alone. Olabisi Johnson and Laquon Treadwell will round out three-receiver sets.
