3 years agoMinnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen (ankle) has been tagged as questionable to play in Sunday's game vs. the Rams due to an ankle injury. Thielen has been sidelined for each of the past two weeks, paving the way for K.J. Osborn to step into fantasy relevance, while Justin Jefferson has enjoyed elevated appeal. While the receiving yards in 2021 have not been up to his past standards, Thielen has hauled in 10 touchdowns this year, his second straight campaign in double figures. He will be matched up with a stout Rams defense if he is ultimately cleared to play, while the absence of Dalvin Cook (Reserve/COVID-19) could force the ball into the air a bit more. Fantasy managers will likely need to monitor Thielen's status all the way up until kickoff Sunday.--Jesse Borek
