Wide Receivers

  • Adam Theilen
  • Stefon Diggs
  • Chad Beebe
  • Jordan Taylor
  • Jeff Badet
  • Dillon Mitchell

Minnesota has arguably the best receiver duo in the NFL in Theilen and Diggs. Both are Pro Bowl performers at worst. Chad Beebe has set himself apart this preseason as the third receiver behind those two. Taylor and Badet are two young veterans who provide solid depth while Mitchell is a seventh-round pick who can stretch the field vertically.
