2020 Fantasy Football: Don't Expect The Adam Thielen of Old

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen is coming into what will be a very different season for him. His long-time running mate Stefon Diggs is no longer in Minnesota after joining the Buffalo Bills.

Now opposite to Thielen will be top draft pick out of LSU, WR Justin Jefferson. Thielen will come into the season as the Vikings clear No. 1 wide receiver. He has put up WR1 (top 12) fantasy numbers in the past, for example, in the 2017 season, Thielen caught 91 passes for 1,276 yards and four touchdowns. Then in 2018, Thielen caught 113 passes for 1,373 yards and nine touchdowns.
