5 years agoAfter removing himself from the Vikings' Week 9 matchup, Thielen's status for this week was cloudy at best. He has officially been ruled out after not practicing on Friday. The hamstring injury that has bothered Thielen since Week 7 has not yet cleared up, and his status moving forward will remain murky until we begin to see positive practice reports. With the Vikings' Week 12 bye coming up, don't be surprised if the team plays things carefully and holds him out in Week 11. In his absence, Stefon Diggs will step in as the unquestioned number one receiver for Kirk Cousins on Sunday night against the Cowboys, who allow the sixth-fewest passing yards per game.--Bill Dubiel - RotoBaller
