Adam Thielen Returns Against Rams
3 years agoMinnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen (ankle) has returned to Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Rams after aggravating his ankle injury in the first half. Thielen missed the previous two weeks due to a high ankle sprain and was pretty upset when he limped off the field in the second quarter, but he is going to tough it out in a must-win game for Minnesota. It remains to be seen how effective he'll be in the second half, but he has caught all three of his targets for a team-high 40 yards. Thielen is one of the best route-runners in the NFL, and the combination of both he and second-year receiver Justin Jefferson is one of the best WR duos in the league. Even if Thielen finishes out the game, expect him to be rested in practice next week ahead of Week 17.
