START ‘EM

player. 60. . Wide Receiver. Vikings. Adam Thielen. 3

Despite the Vikings offense looking anemic pretty much all afternoon against the Bills, the one bright spot was that Adam Thielen showed up big time for his fantasy owners. The Vikings wideout hauled in 14 catches for 105 yards in the loss. That was good for a total of 24.5 points in ESPN leagues.

Thielen has recorded over 100 yards receiving in every game so far and this week, he’ll get a banged up Rams secondary to go toe-to-toe with. Thielen is a must start each and every week, even with his quarterback struggling big time last week.

The biggest knock on Thielen to this point has been that he has just one touchdown through three games. That’s being quite nit-picky though, as the Vikings star has been tremendous so far. Look for him to continue to be a WR1 option on Thursday Night Football.
