Adam Thielen Remains Sidelined
5 years agoMinnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen (hamstring) remains out of practice for the second straight day this week on Thursday. It's becoming increasingly likely that the Vikings will hold Thielen out through their Week 12 bye week. Plan to be without him again in Week 11 against the Broncos. Denver's strong secondary could pose issues for quarterback Kirk Cousins and No. 1 wideout Stefon Diggs. Diggs has had two straight bad games with Thielen on the sidelines, and he's likely to be followed by shutdown cornerback Chris Harris Jr. in this one. Olabisi Johnson and tight ends Kyle Rudolph and Irv Smith Jr. should have bigger roles again, but they're hard to trust in fantasy starting lineups.
