Player: WR Adam Thielen
Stock Value: Up
Reasoning: Three weeks into his Steelers tenure, Adam Thielen is stepping up for the team. Now, he will have to do so to an even greater extent. With DK Metcalf set to serve a suspension, he could be the primary target in the passing game. Acquired via waivers on December 2, he is already establishing himself.
The fact that four catches for 49 yards marked Adam Thielen’s best game of the season says less about him than the role he has played.
