Adam Thielen's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Adam Thielen (hamstring) will not suit up in Week 10 when the Panthers face the New York Giants. The veteran wideout was placed on the injured reserve after Week 3 and returned to practice during the final week of October. This week, the 34-year-old has been unable to practice which was surprising as he was able to participate in a limited capacity at times last week. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his progress as he may have faced a setback this week. This weekend, rookie Xavier Legette is expected to lead the passing attack against the New York secondary who has allowed the 14th-fewest PPR points to opposing wide receivers.

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Adam Thielen (hamstring) is not practicing for a second straight day due to a hamstring injury. The veteran turned in two limited practices last week before logging a "DNP" on Friday, so it's possible he suffered a setback to his ailment. With no practice to start the week, it would be somewhat of a surprise if he's activated from the Injured Reserve list for the Week 10 game against the New York Giants in Germany. With Diontae Johnson now in Baltimore and Jonathan Mingo in Dallas, rookies Xavier Legette and Jalen Coker have fantasy appeal in 12-plus team leagues. The Giants are a natural matchup for wideouts, so both players are on the flex radar for Week 10.

The Pittsburgh Steelers continue to monitor the trade market for wide receivers in hopes of upgrading their offense, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Pittsburgh tried to trade for Christian Kirk before he suffered a season-ending collarbone injury, and now the Steelers are pivoting to other receivers, including Adam Thielen and Mike Williams. It's unclear if the Steelers will be able to pull off a receiver addition before Tuesday's 4 p.m. trade deadline, but they're certainly working the phones in hopes of making a splash.

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Adam Thielen (hamstring) has been ruled out for Week 9 against the New Orleans Saints. Although Thielen did practice earlier this week, he was sidelined Friday and ultimately downgraded to out on Saturday. Sunday will represent his sixth consecutive absence, leaving Xavier Legette and Jalen Coker in line to operate as the Panthers' top receivers.

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Adam Thielen (hamstring) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints according to Joe Person of The Athletic. Thielen logged two limited practice sessions on Wednesday and Thursday but was sidelined on Friday. The veteran wideout is now in danger of missing his sixth-straight contest. During the first three weeks of the season, Thielen caught at least two passes in each game and averaged 36.3 yards per game. While the 34-year-old remains sidelined, fantasy managers should expect Xavier Legette and Jalen Coker to lead the air attack.
