Adam Thielen re-enters Minnesota in the wake of Jordan Addison’s three-game suspension, giving the Vikings a steady veteran target and a plausible Week 1-3 floor in PPR formats as Jefferson and Hawkinson command attention. Addison’s absence opens a path for Thielen to produce useful fantasy numbers early, but his ceiling remains capped once Addison returns and the offense stabilizes. In Carolina, Jaylen Coker steps into a big-slot role with Xavier Legette as a secondary option, signaling a youth-centric rebuild under Bryce Young and a potential Week 1-3 streamer for deeper rosters as the Panthers test their young weapons.
