Who Should I Start? Dyami Brown or Jordan Mason

Tuesday, August 19, 12:19 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Dyami Brown (lower body) was a full practice participant at training camp on Tuesday after he was held out of the team's second preseason game on Sunday against the New Orleans Saints with stiffness in his lower body, according to Mia O'Brien. First-round receiver/defensive back Travis Hunter (upper body) also missed Sunday's exhibition contest and is day-to-day. Jacksonville's receiving corps is a little banged up, but Brown's and Hunter's injuries aren't serious enough to put them in danger of missing Week 1 of the regular season. The 25-year-old Brown has made some noise in camp this summer as he battles for the WR3 role with Parker Washington behind Hunter and Brian Thomas Jr. He had a career-best 308 receiving yards and one touchdown in 16 games for the Commanders in 2024, but Brown will be left to the waiver wire in most 12-team fantasy formats.

With Minnesota Vikings starting running back Aaron Jones (hamstring) facing an injury, fellow running back Jordan Mason could be in line for more work with Minnesota set to face Cincinnati in Week 3. Already operating with a committee, the Vikings have seen significantly more rushing success with their new acquisition, whom the team extended after the trade that brought him from San Francisco to Minnesota. Even with a mostly awful offensive showing so far this season by the Vikings, Mason has 98 yards on 22 carries and three catches in two games. Should Jones miss any time, Mason is likely to get a feature-back workload for a team that desperately needs its running game to get going.
