Vikings' Adam Thielen in store for busy week, if Stefon Diggs is out
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen is in line for a heavy workload if fellow wideout Stefon Diggs does not play on Sunday.
What It Means:
Diggs has missed two days of practice with a groin injury and is looking questionable to play versus the Green Bay Packers in Week 6. Last season, when Diggs sat out, Thielen thrived, posting one of his best games of the year. On October 9, versus the Houston Texans, he had 8 catches for 127 yards and a score.
Our models project Thielen for 4.9 catches, 58.0 yards, and 0.6 touchdowns for 11.9 FanDuel points on Sunday.
