Thielen (thigh) isn't listed on Wednesday's initial injury report ahead of the Vikings' Week 1 matchup with the Bengals.

Thielen participated in practice without any reported issue after he left the team's third preseason game due to a thigh bruise. The injury likely was minor, but he missed the team's final exhibition, which he was likely to skip anyway. His absence from the initial injury report offers confirmation that Thielen is good to go for the season opener in Cincinnati, where he should be in store for a fair amount of targets. An already narrow Vikings pass-catching tree became even thinner a couple weeks ago, when top tight end Irv Smith (knee) underwent season-ending surgery to repair his meniscus.
