STACKED’s take
Jones' declining efficiency and injury history make him a fade despite PPR floor.
Jones enters his age-31 season coming off a clear efficiency decline: 548 yards on 132 carries (4.2 yards per carry) with two rushing touchdowns in 12 of 17 games after missing time with hamstring and hip injuries. He ranked 66th in the league in yards after contact, and the erosion has been building over three years, not a one-season blip. His receiving role (28 catches on 41 targets) still provides a PPR floor in Kevin O'Connell's passing-volume offense, and Jones restructured his contract to a lower number signaling the team still values the role at a reduced snap count. Jordan Mason is the real threat: in games Jones missed, Mason handled a lead-back workload and produced like one. The source fades him at RB46 against an ADP of RB37, reflecting that he is a complementary, passing-down back whose per-carry efficiency keeps sliding in a timeshare that could tilt further toward Mason with one more soft-tissue injury.
