From the episode

Mason might be kind of hard though. Cause Mason's always been on a zone runner. Cause that's what just teams he's been on... I do think it'll become more of a split. Even if Jones is healthy, because just, that's what it is.

STACKED’s take

NeutralRole

Mason's return will create a split with Jones; unclear if he fits Vikings' new gap-scheme approach.

Mason's return from injury will create a split backfield with Aaron Jones. The Vikings have been successful with gap and duo run concepts (50% success rate) but Mason has only played on zone-based offenses, so it's unclear if he'll thrive in the new scheme. Regardless of Jones's health, Mason will eat into his touch share as the Vikings manage Jones's workload.
