From the article

He might have to share with Aaron Jones Sr. (knee) again, and Mason rarely does much in the passing game. But Mason is five years younger than Jones and has more burst as a runner, so we figure Mason can get to 10-plus carries against an ordinary Detroit rushing defense.

Mason may split with Jones but has youth/burst advantage; 10+ carries likely.

Mason might share carries with Aaron Jones Sr. (knee) and rarely contributes in the passing game; however, Mason is five years younger than Jones with more burst as a runner, positioning him to reach 10-plus carries against Detroit's ordinary rushing defense as a lower-end RB2 or proactive flex play.
