Mason's IR placement makes Jones the Vikings' lead back until at least Week 6.

Jordan Mason was placed on injured reserve for at least four games after leaving Week 16 of the 2025 season after four snaps and missing Week 17. Jones totaled 39 carries and seven targets in those two contests. The Vikings will likely get DeeJay Dallas and Demond Claiborne more involved, but it will be the Jones show until Mason returns.
