As Adam Thielen prepares to make his return from a linger hamstring injury, Carolina Panthers breakout rookie wideout Jalen Coker says the veteran’s impact was felt throughout his time on the sideline.

Adam Thielen knows a thing or two about greatness. The number one wide receiver on the Carolina Panthers ' depth chart has both squared off and partnered with some NFL luminaries in his decade as a professional, so he won't be starstruck when the league'g biggest stars, Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce, roll into town on Sunday afternoon.

Wideout Adam Thielen could be in line to make his return in Week 12, when the Panthers host the defending Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs. That prospect was brought up this afternoon by head coach Dave Canales, who also said he expects rookie running back Jonathon Brooks to make his NFL debut this weekend.
