Positive signalProjection

Mason's poor efficiency limits upside despite lead role, touchdown-dependent flex.

Mason will lead the backfield this week after Aaron Jones sustained a knee injury in the fourth quarter last week. In the first three quarters of last week's game, Mason had a 55% snap rate, 12 opportunities, and a 42.9% route share (10.5% target share), with the only red zone carry for the backfield. With his limited work this season, Mason has not been efficient with only 1.97 yards after contact per attempt and a 3% missed tackle rate. The source does not have high hopes for Mason this week, though a touchdown could make him a decent flex. Detroit has allowed the fifth-highest explosive run rate, tenth-highest rushing success rate, and sixth-most yards before contact per attempt over their last five games.
