Mason's early-down role and rushing efficiency metrics support late-round target status.

Mason is a strong early down option for Minnesota and should continue in that role in 2026. He was RB42 in fantasy points per game last year with 158 rushing attempts, 758 rushing yards, and six total touchdowns. Among 49 qualifying backs, he ranked tenth in explosive run rate, seventh in rushing success rate, ninth in missed tackle rate, and 15th in yards after contact per attempt. Aaron Jones will remain the passing-down partner, making Mason best viewed as a high-end handcuff/touchdown-dependent flex, though he could be a plug-and-play RB2 if Jones misses time.
