Minnesota Vikings receiver Adam Thielen (ankle) is expected to suit up for Sunday's Week 16 game against the Los Angeles Rams.
Thielen suffered a sprained ankle back in Week 13, but by all reports (including his own) has made a surprisingly quick recovery. With a positive week of limited practices under his belt, Thielen is now trending towards returning for the Vikings' tough matchup with the Rams.
Thielen has a $7,200 salary on FanDuel and is projected to score 10.3 fantasy points against the Rams. Teammate Justin Jefferson should draw a fair amount of coverage from elite defensive back Jalen Ramsey, meaning Thielen could benefit from seeing less defensive attention.
