Minnesota Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy will look to build off an impressive Week 9 win this Sunday when his team squares off with the visiting Baltimore Ravens. McCarthy returned from a five-game absence last weekend and led a decisive win against their division-rival Detroit Lions, totaling three touchdowns (one rushing). The former Michigan Wolverine will be put to the test again in Week 10, this time against a Ravens D that's clamped down over the previous few weeks. That said, McCarthy's performance in Minnesota's most recent win at least has him on the streaming radar in favorable matchups. On paper, the Ravens are just that -- affording opposing air attacks 250 yards per game (fifth-most). Fantasy managers in need of a bye week fill-in can give the 22-year-old a chance as a high-end QB2.

Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones Sr. (shoulder, toe) is dealing with multiple injuries and was unable to practice on Wednesday. In addition to an AC joint sprain in his right shoulder that he suffered in the Week 9 win against the Detroit Lions, Jones is dealing with a toe issue that leaves his availability up in the air for this Sunday's home tilt versus the visiting Baltimore Ravens. The 30-year-old veteran is truly questionable as of right now, and he'll likely need to get back on the practice field on either Thursday or Friday to avoid being ruled out in Week 10. If Jones is limited at all or out entirely this weekend, Jordan Mason would see the lion's share of backfield work and would elevate to RB2 status in fantasy football. Jones has only played in four games so far in 2025 due to injuries and has yet to find the end zone as a runner, although he is averaging 5.1 yards per carry on his 27 rushing attempts.

The Minnesota Vikings found their running game behind Aaron Jones Sr. (shoulder) last week in a win against the Detroit Lions, and head coach Kevin O'Connell said the success was something the team sorely needed. "There was an element of play style and physicality that needed to be found, and I thought we did those things," O'Connell said of the victory, in which Minnesota rushed for nearly five yards per carry. The head coach was clearly happy with Jones, who piled up 98 total yards on nine carries and two catches, but departed the game with a sprained AC joint that the team does not believe is serious. The veteran was the more effective option when compared to Jordan Mason, whose struggles with pass protecting may impact the team's thinking going forward. Managers should keep an eye on injury reports this week, but the Vikings may be developing a rest-of-season formula that favors Jones over Mason.

Though Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones Sr. (shoulder) left Sunday's win at Detroit, the team does not believe the injury is serious, which could mean a changing role for fellow running back Jordan Mason. The first-year Viking held down the backfield in Jones' absence with a hamstring injury, but Jones was the more effective of the two options against Detroit by gaining 42 more yards on one fewer carry. Vikings coach Kevin O'Connell said the team found "an element of play style and physicality" that it had been lacking, and Jones was the main benefactor. Additionally, Mason probably hasn't helped his cause with a few bad pass-blocking reps that contributed to sacks during the past two weeks. Minnesota may opt to ride the hot hand at running back every week, which can be tricky from a fantasy perspective. But if the Vikings aim to recreate their successful Week 9 game plan, Jones may feature more than Mason in the weeks to come.

Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones Sr. (shoulder) suffered a sprained AC joint in Sunday's win over the Lions. While head coach Kevin O'Connell told the media on Monday that the shoulder is sore, he regarded the prognosis as positive. The team will ramp up Jones' activity throughout the week, so it should come as no surprise if he begins the week with a limited or missed practice, but the sense is that he should be ready to go for the Vikings' Week 10 matchup with the Ravens. Fantasy managers should monitor Minnesota's injury report throughout the week, but with an early-window kickoff, pivot options should be plentiful if he is unable to suit up.
