From the article

the Vikings having spent a fifth-round pick on fullback/H-back Max Bredeson, will the Vikings use a fullback on a significantly greater percentage of their offensive snaps this season?

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Fifth-round pick positioned for significant fullback snap increase under new scheme.

Vikings fifth-round draft pick at fullback/H-back; likely to see significantly increased snap count this season compared to C.J. Ham's historical 200+ snaps per year. With fullback usage patterns from the Shanahan tree (Dolphins averaged 350-425 snaps, 49ers averaged 600), Bredeson could play roughly a third of offensive snaps if the Vikings follow Frank Smith's Miami scheme, with snap reductions likely coming from T.J. Hockenson and/or WR3 Jauan Jennings rather than elite receivers Justin Jefferson or Jordan Addison.
