Aaron Jones Sr. News
Friday, October 23, 12:38 PM
With Minnesota Vikings running back Jordan Mason (thumb) questionable but trending toward returning on Sunday against the Indianapolis Colts, fellow ball-carrier Aaron Jones Sr. is likely to see a reduction in volume from his starring role over the past month. For the Vikings and Jones' longevity, Mason's return is great news. For managers who enjoyed the veteran's stretch of workhorse-like volume, the Vikings' split backfield isn't nearly as appealing. Still, the Colts' defense presents a good enough matchup that the veteran back is in consideration for most formats. The Colts rank 27th against half-PPR running backs, have allowed nearly 5 yards per rush, and surrender points on 47% of opposing teams' drives. While the brief days of Jones earning 20 carries are likely gone, this matchup and his continued value in the passing game give him RB3/Flex value. He's RotoBaller's 25th-ranked running back this week.

Tyjae Spears News
Saturday, October 24, 7:32 AM
Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears is questionable to play against the Cleveland Browns on Sunday, as he was limited during Friday's practice due to a knee injury, according to the Titans' injury report. Spears was a non-factor during the Titans' win over the Indianapolis Colts in Week 6, recording just one carry for one yard and one reception for seven yards. It was a disappointing effort after he hauled in nine receptions in a loss to the Houston Texans the week before. He is averaging a slim 3.7 yards per carry and five yards per reception this season. The Titans take on a Browns defense that allowed Ravens backup running back Justice Hill to record three receptions last week.
