STACKED’s take
Mason's elite efficiency as a backup makes him a league-winner if Jones gets injured.
Mason is a valuable handcuff play. When Aaron Jones missed five weeks last season, Mason handled 16.5 touches per game for 75.3 yards and four touchdowns across four starts, flashing an explosive run rate and yards after contact both ranking in the top 5 percent league-wide. Minnesota's offensive line ranked fifth in adjusted line yards, benefiting whoever carries the ball. However, Mason drops to 7.3 touches and 40 yards a game with almost no receiving work when Jones is healthy. Jones turns 32 in December and has missed six games in a season before, so age and injury risk are real. If Jones misses significant time or shows decline, Mason could help win your league.
