Aaron Jones Sr. is slightly banged up, and it puts Jordan Mason in a great spot to be a solid fantasy option in Week 8. Simply put, the Vikings trust Mason. In his first game off of IR last week, he saw 15 carries, while Jones had 8 and left early with a knee injury. Given the matchup against the Lions' defense – which allows over 20 PPR points per game to running backs – Mason could see 18+total touches, enabling him to get past 15 PPR points.
