Adam Thielen (ankle) doesn’t practice Thursday

According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, veteran WR Adam Thielen did not practice for the Carolina Panthers.

Fantasy Impact: If you have Thielen on your roster, you’re probably not starting him in Week 1, but if he’s in line to be a FLEX play, keep his situation monitored. Thielen is nursing an ankle injury and was limited on Wednesday. A mid-week downgrade is never ideal, and an official designation should come out on Friday. If Thielen misses time, rookie WR Jonathan Mingo could be in line for a high usage rate given the team’s other WR injuries.
