Shared Backfield Role Caps Upside in Chilly Green Bay Matchup
Jordan Mason enters Sunday's cold outdoor divisional clash at Lambeau Field healthy, operating in a committee role behind Aaron Jones Sr. His workload has cooled off recently, totaling just 14 rushing attempts and two catches across his last two outings as the Vikings look to snap a two-game losing streak.
Fantasy managers largely treat him as a bench stash right now, keeping him widely rostered while starting him in fewer than a quarter of leagues. Our weekly projection lands near 13 carries for 57 rushing yards, with minimal passing-game usage limiting his floor in an expected low-scoring contest. Unless you are desperate for volume in deeper formats, view Mason strictly as a touchdown-dependent reserve option this week.

Aaron Jones Sr. at Green Bay — Risky Flex Option in a Shared Backfield
Jones enters this divisional matchup healthy, though he is stuck in a shared workload alongside Jordan Mason in Minnesota's backfield. His volume has dipped noticeably lately, resulting in just 10 carries and three receptions over his last two games combined. Because of that shrinking touch share, fantasy managers have steadily shifted him to the bench even though he remains rostered in almost every league.
With the Vikings looking to snap a two-game skid as slight road underdogs in freezing Lambeau Field conditions, scoring opportunities could be tight in a projected defensive battle. Still, our models anticipate a modest rebound to roughly 11 carries, 43 rushing yards, and a couple of catches for 9.7 fantasy points, making the veteran committee back a touchdown-dependent flex play.
