Minnesota Vikings’ Adam Thielen heads to the Reserve/COVID-19 list

Adam Thielen of the Vikings goes to the Reserve/COVID-19 list

The Minnesota Vikings have placed top wideout Adam Thielen on the Reserve/COVID-19 list.

The move comes a day after Thielen had a pair of touchdown receptions in the Vikings’ loss to the Dallas Cowboys.

Thielen has 49 catches in 10 games for 646 yards and 11 touchdowns, four coming in the last two games.

He could be eligible to return later in the week and for the Vikings’ Week 12 game against the Panthers if he passes COVID-19 protocol.
