Adam Thielen’s Agent: ‘He’s earned a significant pay raise’

A year after earning a Second-Team All-Pro selection, Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen went out and had himself a record-breaking campaign during the 2018 season. Thielen finished the year with career-highs in catches (113), yards (1,373), and touchdowns (nine).

Thanks to the contract he signed in 2017, the Vikings receiver is scheduled to only make around $8 million for next season. A number of pass catchers around the NFL are set to be paid more than Thielen in 2019 including Kenny Stills, Marvin Jones, Marqise Lee, Allen Robinson, and Emmanuel Sanders.
