WATCH: Adam Thielen spits out turkey presented to Vikings players post-Thanksgiving win 

Adam Thielen had a big game on Thanksgiving. Following their 33-26 victory over the New England Patriots on Thanksgiving, Thielen and the Minnesota Vikings celebrated with traditional Turkey. They were seen feasting during the post-game interview.

Quarterback Kirk Cousins and wide receivers Justin Jefferson and Adam Thielen joined NBC on national TV. As they were eating, Thielen felt the turley was too dry for his liking, causing him to spit it out on national TV.

Thielen told NBC's Melissa Stark:

"To be able to play here on Thanksgiving at home, all the family here ready for a Thanksgiving dinner tomorrow night — as I've got turkey in my mouth. It's a little dry."

Jefferson wasn't able to eat the turkey or any food as he had diamond grills in his mouth, but Cousins dug in.

With their victory over the New England Patriots yesterday, the Minnesota Vikings improved to 9-2 on the season. They were led on offense by the trio of Cousins, Jefferson, and Thielen.

In the victory, Jefferson recorded nine receptions for 139 yards and a touchdown. Thielen caught nine passes for 61 yards and the go-ahead touchdown early in the fourth quarter. Cousins also shone in the victory. He completed 30 of 37 passes for 299 and three touchdowns with one interception.

Next up for the Vikings are the New York Jets on December 4 in Minnesota. The Jets are currently 6-4 and are in third place in their competitive division, the AFC East. For the Vikings, it seems they will win the NFC North with ease, as the second-place Lions sit at 4-7.

With Minnesota a surprise but dominant package in the 2022 season, fans will certainly be hoping their point-scoring proclivity doesn't dry up. With Week 12 complete for the Vikings, the playoffs aren't too far ahead.
