Panthers activate WR Adam Thielen (hamstring) from IR

Nov 12, 2024

The Panthers have activated WR Adam Thielen from IR.

Related players: Xavier Legette, Jalen Coker, David Moore

Fantasy Impact:

Thielen is at the end of his 21-day window to practice and has been dealing with a hamstring injury. It's tough to tell just what the Panthers will do with Thielen in their WR pecking order, but he may very well step right in an be a top target. The Panthers seem like they're trying to get QB Bryce Young to develop with Legette and Coker, but Thielen could also prove to be a nice security blanket for Young. Those looking for WR help may want to make room on your roster for Thielen, especially the deeper the league.

Seahawks ruled out RB Kenneth Walker III for Thursday night’s game at Chicago.

Related Players: Zach Charbonnet, Kenny McIntosh

Fantasy Impact:

No mention of Charbonnet here, so we can assume he's in a good place to take a massive workload against a Bears defense that ranks 27th in RB aFPA. Fire up Charbs as an RB2.

Chiefs Pro-Bowl DT Chris Jones officially is inactive today vs. the Steelers.

Steelers CB Joey Porter Jr. officially is inactive, WR George Pickens officially active.

Related Players: Calvin Austin III, Van Jefferson, Mike Williams

Fantasy Impact:

The Steelers WR room looks a little more palatable with Pickens in the lineup, but it's still not enough to push Russell Wilson above deep-league SuperFlex territory. Consider Pickens a WR3 for Week 17.
