After making a spectacular touchdown catch in which he was able to keep his feet in bounds, Minnesota Vikings receiver Adam Thielen came up hobbled against the Detroit Lions. Now he is questionable to return for the game.

It appeared that Thielen was favoring his wrist or hand after the catch, but reports suggest that it is actually his hamstring that is in question. The touchdown was Thielen's first catch of the day and was most likely not his last if he is able to return to the game.

UPDATE:

Thielen is questionable to return. Keep in mind that the Vikings play a Thursday night game this week against the Washington Redskins.

Thielen has been great since calling out his quarterback Kirk Cousins after their loss to the Chicago Bears in Week 4. A Thielen injury would be devastating for a Vikings team that is playing with a ton of confidence at the moment. Cousins, in particular, has stepped up his play, showing no fear throwing the ball and willing to sling it deep, something Thielen complained Minnesota wasn't doing enough of.

With Thielen going down, the Vikings might revert to their game plan in the first four games of the season: Hand the ball off to Dalvin Cook. The running back has been spectacular so far this season, coming into Sunday's game as a top-five rusher in the league.

The Vikings will hope they can pull out a win against a tough Detroit team without Adam Thielen and move to an impressive 5-2 with the Washington Redskins looming.
