Mason has had a partial workload over the past two years but has flashed in that time (1,689 yards, 9 TDs). A bully of a runner (5.1 yards per carry for career), Mason feels likely to earn the No. 1 RB role this season for the Vikings, which puts him in line for 250+ rushes.PositiveRoleJul 7, 2026
Jordan Mason is generating significant positive buzz as the likely favorite for touches in the revamped Vikings offense with Kyler Murray. Beat reporters and Fantasy Life contributors have been advocating for him. After Week 10 last year, Mason ranked 3rd in explosive run percentage and 10th in missed tackles forced per attempt, compared to Aaron Jones at 37th in success rate. Across 16 contests, Mason averaged more yards per carry and per game than Jones and consistently earned snaps in the red zone, with Kevin O'Connell clearly trusting him near the goal line. Kyler Murray plans to tilt exposures toward Mason while remaining relatively agnostic on both cheap Vikings backs.
