Aaron Jones Sr., Aaron Jones Sr. Not Dealing With Serious Shoulder Injury, Likely Day-to-Day

The Minnesota Vikings do not think that running back Aaron Jones Sr. (shoulder) suffered a serious shoulder injury in Sunday's blowout loss to the Seattle Seahawks in Week 13, and he is likely to be considered day-to-day, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Jones injured his shoulder in the third quarter on Sunday and never returned in the 26-0 loss. Jordan Mason took over the bulk of the backfield duties the rest of the way, with Zavier Scott backing him up. The 30-year-old Jones finished with only six carries for three yards (and a lost fumble) while catching all four of his targets for 22 yards through the air. Jones' injury isn't serious, but fantasy managers will want to keep a close eye on his practice status this week as the team heads into a Week 14 clash against the Commanders. Even if Jones can play against Washington, he could cede more work to Mason in Minnesota's backfield if he's not 100%.

Jordan Mason, Jordan Mason Worth Targeting on the Waiver Wire Due to Injury Questions in Minnesota Backfield

Minnesota Vikings running back Jordan Mason has recorded single-digit touches in each of his last four games. However, the 26-year-old may step into a much more prominent role going forward after fellow Vikings back Aaron Jones Sr. (shoulder) suffered a shoulder injury during the team's Week 13 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Across the four games that Jones Sr. missed earlier this season with a hamstring injury, Mason recorded 301 scrimmage yards and four touchdowns on 66 touches. Minnesota's offense as a whole has spiraled downwards in recent weeks, recording six points combined over its last two games. However, Minnesota could get quarterback J.J. McCarthy (concussion) back in Week 14, and the Vikings have a far more favorable matchup against the Washington Commanders. If Jones Sr. is forced to miss time, Mason would have starting fantasy appeal in Week 14. He's worth targeting on the waiver wire even if more clarity around Jones Sr.'s status does not come until later in the week.

Jordan Addison, Five Catches For Jordan Addison In Blowout Loss

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison ended Sunday's shutout loss at Seattle with five catches for 36 yards on a team-best 10 targets. At the end of the day, it was yet another horrific showing from the Minnesota offense, which started undrafted rookie Max Brosmer at quarterback. The rookie threw four interceptions, including one for a touchdown, as the Vikings were shut out for the first time since 2007. Addison, for his part, had multiple drops but cobbled together a few late catches from a day in which the Vikings gained only 162 yards. Addison may see another quarterback change next week if J.J. McCarthy (concussion) can return, though managers can't be faulted for not trusting the Vikings' offense ahead of a Week 14 game against Washington.

T.J. Hockenson, T.J. Hockenson Leads Vikings In Receiving

Minnesota Vikings tight end T.J. Hockenson led the team in receiving by catching all six targets for 59 yards in a 26-0 loss Sunday in Seattle. The veteran tight end was one of the very few bright spots for Minnesota, which turned over the ball five times and gained 162 total yards with undrafted rookie Max Brosmer starting at quarterback. Minnesota has now lost four straight games during which it has scored only 42 total points. The Vikings could see another change at quarterback if starter J.J. McCarthy (concussion) is deemed fit to play, but it's becoming increasingly difficult to trust anything about this offense ahead of a Week 14 game against Washington.

Max Brosmer, Disastrous Debut For Max Brosmer

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Max Brosmer had a forgettable first NFL start, throwing four interceptions in a disastrous 26-0 loss at Seattle. The undrafted rookie on the road against one of the NFL's top defenses went as expected, as Brosmer finished 19-for-30 passing for 126 yards and threw an awful pick-six in the first half that gave Seattle a double-digit lead it held for the rest of the day. From a fantasy perspective, playing Brosmer was a huge risk that came up totally empty. Star receiver Justin Jefferson finished with two catches and four yards receiving, while the offense gained only 162 total yards. Whether Brosmer plays again will be determined by starter J.J. McCarthy (concussion), who would need to clear protocol to return for a Week 14 game against Washington.
