Adam Thielen leads Vikings with 12 receptions in Week 2

Adam Thielen snagged 12-of-13 targets for 131 yards during the Week 2 tie versus the Packers. Thielen showed excellent concentration hauling in a 22-yard score on the game-tying touchdown with 31 seconds left in the fourth quarter.

Fantasy Impact:

That is back-to-back 100-yard games for Thielen to start the season. With limited reliable receiving options outside of Thielen and Stefon Diggs, the duo will continue to absorb a lot of targets from Kirk Cousins, especially when facing a good offense on the other side of the field that keeps the pressure on the Vikings offense. This may not be the case in Week 3 with the Bills coming to town.
