STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Mason's upside limited by poor Vikings offense; needs perfect game script.

The source reports that Mason had the majority of ground work in Week 8 against the Lions but neither he nor Aaron Jones was particularly good despite a solid matchup. The source notes that Murray was the leading rusher with four carries for 35 yards, indicating the Vikings offense is struggling. The source states that Mason would need everything to work in his favor—game script, volume, touchdown equity—in order to get fantasy managers home, and neither back feels very appealing right now. Looking ahead to Week 9 against the Bills, the source suggests if Murray can't get the offense moving, the Vikings could fall behind, which means less Mason and more Jones.
