The San Francisco 49ers returned to practice today, as did the Minnesota Vikings, and we’re going to start with the road team. Both of their starting wide receivers didn’t practice Wednesday for different reasons. Stefon Diggs was absent for the second day with an illness. Head coach Mike Zimmer didn’t seem too concerned and said, “He’s sick. He’ll be fine.”
The real story is Adam Thielen, who sustained an ankle injury in Wednesday’s practice and was listed on the injury report as ‘limited’ after being healthy on Tuesday and all of last week.
