Adam Thielen A Flex Option In Week 1
2 years agoMinnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen draws a tough matchup in Week 1 against
a very talented Green Bay secondary. The 32-year-old will slot in as the No. 2 option in the passing game behind Justin Jefferson, so he will likely be seeing a lot of Rasul Douglas, who had an amazing 2021 campaign. Prior to his injury last season, Thielen was once again one of the league's best at scoring touchdowns. He found the end zone 10 times in his first 12 games in 2021 and should remain one of Kirk Cousins' go-to targets in the red zone this season. Despite playing as the second option behind Jefferson, Thielen should see enough volume to warrant FLEX consideration in the Vikings' new pass-heavy offense.
