Adam Thielen eager for Vikings' Week 2 visit to Lambeau
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen is excited for Sunday's visit to Lambeau Field against the Green Bay Packers.
“You come out that small little tunnel at the visitor’s locker room, and the fans are crazy there [in supporting] their team. It’s just a really fun place to play,” Thielen said. “[The Packers are] always good, so that’s another reason." Thielen was limited to 2 catches and 24 yards in last year's December visit to Lambeau, but he exploded for 202 yards and 2 touchdowns on 12 catches in the 2016 road meeting. The fifth-year wideout noted there's an advantage to playing in Green Bay earlier in the season due to the field being in better condition.
numberFire's models project Thielen to score 12.7 FanDuel points at a cost of $7,600 in Week 2. He rounds out the top-10 wide receivers in our weekly fantasy rankings.
