Adam Thielen Expected To Wear Protective Padding
5 years agoMinnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen (ankle) is expected to wear protective padding around his stitched-up ankle in the Divisional game against the 49ers on Saturday, according to a source. Thielen is questionable to play, but all signs point to him being active in this big game. He had seven catches for 100-plus yards in the wild-card round, but Thielen has been injured for most of the season and will be facing off against a very strong Niners pass defense. There's also the chance that Thielen's stitches open up during the game on Saturday, which could cause him to miss some game action. He's shaping up as an extremely risky DFS option relative to his price.
