Adam Thielen Fantasy

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen enjoyed a fantastic Week 1 and will look to keep it going against the Colts in Week 2. Thielen caught six passes for 110 yards and two touchdowns against the Packers and now will face a Colts Defense that was put on its heels, at times, against the Jaguars last week. Thielen is the unquestionable number one target for quarterback Kirk Cousins and the veteran receiver will need a strong performance if the Vikings hope to pick up their first win of the season. Thielen will be a top-8 selection among wide receivers heading into Week 2.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen caught six passes for a team-high 110 yards and two touchdowns in the Vikings 43-34 loss to the Packers. Thielen saw eight targets in the game, most importantly a 19-yard and 37-yard receptions for touchdowns. After an injury-plagued season in 2019, Thielen is off to an elite start. The veteran should be considered a WR1 fantasy option heading into Week 2.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen should see plenty of targets Week 1 against the Packers. Thielen's 2019 was derailed by injuries but returns as the unquestioned number one receiver in the Vikings offense. He will go up against a Packers Defense that allowed the 11th fewest fantasy points to opposing receivers last season. Fantasy team's do need to keep in mind that quarterback Kirk Cousins has struggled mightily against the Packers the past few seasons. But that could also entail that the ball will go to the players Cousins trusts most and Thielen certainly is one of those. The veteran receiver's fantasy value will be maximized most in PPR-formats for Week 1.
