Adam Thielen - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Racks up 43 yards in victory Thielen secured three of six targets for 43 yards during Sunday's 26-24 win over the Ravens.

Impact Thielen was on the field for 67 percent of the Steelers' offensive snaps during Sunday's regular-season finale, and he topped 40 receiving yards for the second time in five appearances since joining the team. DK Metcalf (suspension) is slated to return to action for next Monday's wild-card matchup against Houston, so Thielen's role will likely decrease during postseason action.

Flops despite Metcalf being out Thielen caught two passes for 14 yards on five targets in the Steelers' 13-6 loss to the Browns on Sunday.

Impact Despite DK Metcalf serving his suspension, Thielen was tied for third on the team in targets and finished sixth in receiving yards. At 35 years old, Thielen simply doesn't have a whole lot left in the tank while also playing in a passing offense that is unable to support more than one pass-catcher.

Produces 49 yards in Week 16 win Thielen caught all four of his targets for 49 yards in the Steelers' 29-24 win over the Lions on Sunday.

Impact Thielen's targets, catches and yards were all new season-highs for the 35-year-old wideout. After producing just two catches for 11 yards on two targets in his first two games with the Steelers, Thielen finished second on the team in receiving against Detroit. He's emerging as a clear top-three wide receiver in Pittsburgh, but it's unlikely to translate to useful fantasy numbers outside of deeper formats ahead of next Sunday's game against the Browns.

Steelers passed the eye test for the first time in a while in a dominant win over Miami

The Pittsburgh Steelers have found a way to make their old-school football style work again

DECEMBER 16, 2025 • Associated Press

Held to one target against Miami Thielen secured his lone target for seven yards during Monday's 28-15 win over Miami.

Impact Thielen ranked second among Pittsburgh's wide receivers Monday by playing 58 percent of the team's offensive snaps, but he wasn't heavily involved in the passing game. The 35-year-old has seen an uptick in playing time since being waived by Minnesota and subsequently claimed by Pittsburgh, but he's been targeted just once in each of his first two appearances with his new team. Despite his increased snap counts, Thielen's fantasy potential remains limited late in the regular season.

Adam Thielen takes a quiet shot at former team after Steelers debut Minnesota Vikings fans won't love the backhanded comment Adam Thielen made after his first game with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

DECEMBER 8, 2025 • STILLCURTAIN.COM

Held to one catch in team debut Thielen secured his lone target for four yards during Sunday's 27-22 win over the Ravens.

Impact Although Thielen's target share was low during Sunday's Week 14 win, it was encouraging that he was on the field for 48 percent of the team's offensive snaps after being claimed off waivers by the Steelers on Tuesday. The 35-year-old had a disappointing start to the year with the Vikings, securing just eight of 18 targets for 69 yards. While he could have an opportunity to see more playing time in Pittsburgh down the stretch ahead of his expected retirement during the offseason, the Steelers' passing game has struggled to produce much success under Aaron Rodgers, so Thielen's fantasy upside could remain limited.

Set for Steelers debut Thielen is active for Sunday's game against the Ravens, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.

Impact Thielen was claimed off waivers by the Steelers on Tuesday and will now be active just five days later. Pittsburgh has been without a viable No. 2 receiver behind DK Metcalf all season, so Thielen should be in for a significant role immediately. Due to limited pass volume and his own declining skillset, that role still isn't likely to lead to fantasy relevance in most formats.
