Who Should I Start? Adam Thielen or Matthew Golden

Friday, September 26, 4:50 PM

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen should be kept out of starting lineups when his team takes on the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday in Ireland. Now that receiver Jordan Addison (suspension) is back in the fold, Thielen is likely to see a significant decrease in snaps. Even with high snap rates in the first three weeks, Thielen caught a meager two passes. At this point, it's fair to wonder if he'll earn more snaps or targets than fellow receiver Jalen Nailor, to say nothing of Addison, top receiver Justin Jefferson, and tight end T.J. Hockenson. Given his lack of production and his situation on the depth chart, Thielen can be sent to waiver wires in standard redraft leagues.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Matthew Golden (shoulder, wrist) is officially inactive for Sunday's Week 12 contest against the Minnesota Vikings. He was listed as questionable after being a limited participant in practice. The rookie has been disappointing during his first pro season, catching just 24 passes for 286 yards through nine games. He is also still looking for his first career touchdown. Golden's second absence in three weeks will lead to more opportunities for Dontayvion Wicks (calf) in his role behind Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs.
