Adam Thielen Will Be Game-Time Decision
5 years agoMinnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen (hamstring), who is questionable for Week 9 against the Chiefs, will test his right hamstring before the game to determine if he'll be active. Thielen missed last Thursday's game and was limited in practice this week while wearing a sleeve on his leg. Even at less than 100 percent if he plays, Thielen would have high-end WR2 upside against Kansas City, but he's become more risky than usual with his questionable tag. Stefon Diggs would be a WR1 and a must-start if Thielen sits out, obviously. Olabisi Johnson and rookie Irv Smith would likely have bigger roles in the passing game if Thielen misses his second straight game.
