[anvplayer video=”5145280″ station=”998122″]
Vikings WR Adam Thielen spent time Monday morning, via Zoom, chatting with our Darren ‘Doogie’ Wolfson. They bonded over their mutual love of hot dogs and football, of course.
Thielen has partnered with Minnesota-based Ambassador Hot Dogs, a staple in his house.
Thielen’s six-catch effort in Sunday’s win over Arizona moved him to 499 receptions in his Vikings’ career. That total is now third in team history. Steve Jordan, who Thielen passed on Sunday, is now fourth with 498.
The only two players ahead of Thielen on the Vikings’ all-time receptions chart are Hall of Famers Cris Carter (1,004) and Randy Moss (587).

Thielen, 32, noted that he feels he can do everything on the field that he did a few years ago.
