MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) — Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen reportedly suffered a bad cut to his ankle during practice Wednesday, but says he will do “whatever it takes” to get on the playing field Saturday.
According to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, Thielen needed stitches for the “bad cut”, but the initial prognosis was encouraging for his chances of playing against the San Francisco 49ers.
“You know how it is, I got a little tangled up in practice, but I’m going to do whatever it takes. You know, it’s playoffs. So, I’m going to do whatever it takes to be out there on Saturday with my teammates and try to help the team win,” Thielen said in an interview with the NFL Network.
