3 years agoMinnesota Vikings tight end Tyler Conklin (hamstring) returned to a limited practice on Thursday after he was held out on Wednesday. The return to practice puts Conklin in line to be able to suit up on Sunday night against the Green Bay Packers unless he suffers a setback on Friday. And with wide receiver Adam Thielen (ankle) now done for the rest of the season after having surgery, Conklin and wideout K.J. Osborn will be in line for more targets the rest of the way. Conklin had three catches for a modest 35 yards in the Week 11 meeting with the Packers, but Green Bay's defense has allowed the fifth-most fantasy points to opposing TEs in the last three weeks. Conklin will be a more attractive low-end TE1 if he plays.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
