  Panthers | Adam Thielen limited to 12 yards    Sun Jan 7, 04:35 PM

Carolina Panthers WR Adam Thielen caught two passes for 12 yards against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 18. He was targeted three times during the game.

Footballguys view: Thielen had a short stretch when he looked like he could be a league winner as a struggle target in a limited offense, but his production tailed off in the second half of the season. The Panthers are on the hook for $4.5 million of Thielen's salary next season and a $2 million roster bonus in mid-March, so he'll be back with the team, but with questionable fantasy value.

  Panthers | Adam Thielen catches five passes    Sun Dec 10, 04:30 PM

Carolina Panthers WR Adam Thielen caught five passes for 74 yards against the New Orleans Saints in Week 14. He was targeted seven times during the game.

Footballguys view: Thielen at least wasn't a lineup liability this week, but he didn't make you excited to play him against the Falcons next week. The best bet for production next week would be a blowout with more garbage time, as the Panthers stayed within a score until the fourth quarter in this game.

  Panthers | Adam Thielen limited to two yards    Sun Nov 26, 05:02 PM

Carolina Panthers WR Adam Thielen caught one pass for two yards against the Tennessee Titans in Week 12. He was targeted three times during the game.

Footballguys view: Fantasy teams relying on Thielen looked like they had the best pick of the draft in PPR leagues through six weeks despite his being a bust in Week 1. Over the last four weeks, he has been an ordinary WR3/Flex, and now he is undermining confidence that he can even carry that value forward. The matchup with Tampa next week is a good one, so keep him in lineups if you can, but be ready to exile him to the bench if he doesn't come through

Footballguys view: The league winner Adam Thielen segment of the season is over. Thielen is still a suitable PPR WR3/Flex, but he and the Panthers offense could be roadkill against the Cowboys pass rush next week.

  Panthers | Adam Thielen registers 11 receptions    Sun Oct 15, 06:55 PM

Carolina Panthers WR Adam Thielen posted a game-high 11 receptions and 13 targets in Week 6 against the Miami Dolphins, finishing with a team-best 115 yards and a touchdown.

Footballguys view: Thielen has ended up being one of the best value picks in drafts after a totally nondescript Week 1 that hinted at a player in decline. Bryce Young has learned what Andy Dalton illustrated in his start - just target Thielen, he'll find a way to get open and make the catch. Thielen is a strong WR2, especially in PPR leagues, heading into his bye.

  Panthers | Passing attack leaning on Adam Thielen    Sat Oct 14, 01:35 AM

Carolina Panthers WR Adam Thielen has averaged 11 targets over the last four games, logging at least eight targets in all four contests and topping 75 receiving yards three times.

Footballguys view: Things started off slowly for Thielen as he only had nine catches in the first two games combined. Over the last three games, Thielen has 29 catches, two 100-yard games, and two touchdowns. This week against the Dolphins, the Panthers should fall behind and have to go through the air to fight back. That means Thielen could produce like a WR1 (again) for Fantasy GMs out there.

  Panthers | Adam Thielen surpasses 100-yard mark    Sun Oct 8, 05:22 PM

Carolina Panthers WR Adam Thielen caught 11 passes for 107 yards and one touchdown against the Detroit Lions in Week 5. He was targeted 13 times during the game.

Footballguys view: Thielen put up his first big game with Bryce Young, helping reassure us that he is an everyweek starter. This was a blowout and Thielen was helped by garbage time, but did not subsist on it alone. He'll get a lot of targets in an equally futile matchup against the Dolphins next week.

  Panthers | Carolina's Week 1 injury report    Fri Sep 8, 12:39 PM

Carolina Panthers WR DJ Chark Jr. (hamstring) was upgraded to a limited practice on Friday, Sept. 8, but was ruled out for Week 1 versus the Atlanta Falcons. WR Adam Thielen (ankle) was also upgraded to a limited practice on Friday and is listed as questionable. DT DeShawn Williams (illness), S Sam Franklin (knee), WR Terrace Marshall Jr. (back) and WR Ihmir Smith-Marsette (ankle) practiced in full on Friday and no longer on the injury report.

Footballguys view: Marshall will get on the field a lot with Chark out, but he could draw shutdown corner AJ Terrell. Thielen looks like a true game time decision after missing the first two practices of the week. Rookie Jonathan Mingo and free agent pickup Hayden Hurst could get a lot of targets this week in what might be a tough debut for #1 overall pick Bryce Young.

  Panthers | Adam Thielen sits Thursday    Thu Sep 7, 02:26 PM

  Panthers | WR Thielen to Lead in Receptions?    Fri Jul 7, 12:52 PM

In a recent NFL on NBC interview, Panthers.com's Darin Gantt suggested veteran WR Adam Thielen will lead the Carolina Panthers in receptions in 2023.

Footballguys view: Gantt is one of the best team reporters out there, so we are certainly listening to what he's saying about Thielen. It just makes sense - and for many reasons. Thielen can be a security blanket for rookie QB Bryce Young, and he's going to get open consistently. Young is a brilliant passer, and his favorite target is the open guy - which could be Thielen early and often. Fantasy GMs see Theilen as a depth receiver, but in PPR formats his value gets an uptick based on his projected usage.
