Who Should I Start? Adam Thielen or Romeo Doubs

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 head coach Matt LaFleur said that wide receiver Romeo Doubs (chest) "should be good to go" for the Week 11 contest this Sunday on the road against the New York Giants after leaving Monday night's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles early, according to Matt Schneidman of The Athletic. We'll closely monitor Doubs' practice status this week heading into Sunday's game, but as of right now, fantasy managers should expect to have him available in a very good matchup at MetLife Stadium. The 25-year-old will have an even higher ceiling and floor if rookie wideout Matthew Golden (shoulder) is forced to miss a second straight game with his shoulder injury. Through 10 weeks in 2025, Doubs leads the Packers in catches (35) and targets (56) while recording 446 receiving yards and four touchdowns as the team's WR1 with Jayden Reed (collarbone, foot) on Injured Reserve.
