Adam Thielen Suffers Bruised Thigh
3 years agoMinnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen (leg) was injured during Saturday's preseason bout against the Indianapolis Colts. The veteran didn't last long in this one, taking a knee to his thigh during the team's first series of the night. Fortunately, he is only dealing with a contusion, so he should be just fine moving ahead, although it wouldn't be surprising if he didn't appear in any more exhibitions moving ahead. The 30-year-old saw a decrease in yards during the 2020 campaign, finishing with only 925. Still, his 14 touchdowns were the third-best in the league at the position. Nonetheless, managers looking for an impactful wideout should keep Thielen on the radar. However, health concerns, shoddy quarterback play, age, and the anticipated progression of Justin Jefferson (shoulder) could have a significant impact on his fantasy output.
