New-Look Offense Could Benefit Aaron Jones Sr. In Week 10

Friday, November 13, 12:01 PM

The Minnesota Vikings' acquisition of veteran quarterback Kirk Cousins should elevate the team's struggling offense, which could mean additional chances for running back Aaron Jones Sr. in Week 10 at Green Bay. The former Packer has just 64 rushing yards in the past three games, but Minnesota's offense has been so helpless that it's hard to fault the team's running backs for the team's inability to stay on the field. Cousins, however, is intimately familiar with the scheme, and any improvement in the passing game will help Jones, both as a runner and a receiver. The veteran back has 16 catches in his past six games even amidst the struggles, giving him continued appeal, especially against a Packers defense that ranks 25th against half-PPR running backs. As RotoBaller's No. 28 running back in Week 10, Jones is a solid RB3/Flex option in most formats.

Midweek Trade To Unlock Jordan Mason Against Packers?

Friday, November 13, 11:58 AM

Lost in the Minnesota Vikings' offensive ineptitude this season is that running back Jordan Mason has still been efficient, giving renewed hope to fantasy managers in Week 10 at Green Bay. The Vikings' trade for quarterback Kirk Cousins should, at minimum, give the team some semblance of a passing game, which should mean more chances to stay on the field for the Vikings' running backs. Even as opponents have locked in on the running game with the team unable to complete passes, Mason has still averaged 4.2 yards per carry since his return from a thumb injury. The presence of Cousins -- a play-action merchant during his time in the NFL -- could have the added effect of unlocking the run game, good news for Mason against a Green Bay defense that ranks 25th against half-PPR running backs. As RotoBaller's No. 31 running back this week, Mason should be considered an RB3/Flex option at Green Bay.
