Jordan Mason placed on IR with fractured thumb; out until late October.

Jordan Mason has been placed on injured reserve after undergoing surgery to repair a fractured right thumb suffered during the Vikings' season-opening victory over Green Bay. Despite playing through the injury and finishing with 59 rushing yards and a touchdown on 15 carries, further evaluation determined that surgical repair was necessary. Under league rules, Mason will be required to miss at least four games, pushing his earliest possible return to late October. In his absence, Aaron Jones is expected to take on a larger share of the backfield workload, while DeeJay Dallas has been elevated from the practice squad to provide additional depth. Fantasy managers can safely move Mason to an IR spot and prepare for a multi-week absence.
