The 'NFL active receiving leaders' quiz

When the Minnesota Vikings brought home franchise icon Adam Thielen just ahead of the 2025 NFL season, they thought he’d be both a good story and a stable receiving option for JJ McCarthy.

But Thielen’s second Minnesota tenure ended after just eight catches for 69 yards in 11 games and with a granted request to compete elsewhere in his final season. The 35 year old with 12 seasons of professional experience is now heading to Pittsburgh, where the Steelers are tied at 6-6 with the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC North.

Which brings us to today’s quiz. Despite his lack of production in Minnesota, Thielen did post a 1,000-yard season with the Carolina Panthers in 2023 and reached 615 in just 10 games last season. With that being said, can you name the active NFL players with at least 5,000 receiving yards?

Good luck!
