Aaron Jones Sr. vs. IND — Primary Workload in a Favorable Home Script

Aaron Jones Sr. continues to lead Minnesota's backfield heading into a home matchup against Indianapolis. Despite playing through a knee issue during a heavy early-season stretch, Jones remains the clear lead back, even as Jordan Mason nears a return to re-establish a rotation.

With the 5-0 Vikings favored at home, game script should heavily favor the run. Our weekly projection lands Jones at roughly 17 carries for 72 rushing yards alongside three receptions for 22 yards (14.9 fantasy points). Fantasy managers should feel confident slotting him into their lineups across all formats as a reliable starter.

Outlook Tyler Higbee

Tyler Higbee at Las Vegas — Elevated Target Floor in High-Scoring Matchup

Operating as the Rams' primary tight end, Higbee has re-established a reliable connection with Matthew Stafford, securing nine of 10 targets for 105 yards over his last two outings. His involvement in the passing attack should stay prominent this week, especially with top wide receiver Davante Adams placed on injured reserve.

Our projections expect Higbee to post around 3.3 catches for 36 yards (8.8 fantasy points) in a matchup with favorable shootout potential. With his roster rate climbing near 50% and steady volume opening up over the middle, Higbee profiles as a viable streaming option and low-end TE1 for fantasy managers.
