Who Should I Start? Jordan Mason or Breece Hall

Friday, November 7, 6:14 PM

Minnesota Vikings running back Jordan Mason faces a friendly matchup against a Baltimore Ravens team that has struggled to stop the run for large portions of the year, but it remains to be seen how the Vikings will allocate carries in their backfield in Week 10. Fellow running back Aaron Jones Sr. (shoulder, toe) left last week's game and is questionable to play against the Ravens, which offers a range of possibilities for Mason. Jones was the more effective option last week in a key victory against Detroit, and though Minnesota head coach Kevin O'Connell has expressed optimism about Jones playing this week, Mason would be the featured option if Jones were to miss the game. The Vikings have ridden the hot hand when both backs have been available, which can be challenging to predict for fantasy purposes. But with Mason facing a good matchup and still getting a reasonable amount of work alongside Jones, he's a playable RB3/flex option in most formats.

New York Jets running back Breece Hall was a huge factor during Sunday's game against the Cleveland Browns. He rushed the ball 21 times for 83 yards on the ground, but his biggest play came through the air. Hall took a screen pass for a 42-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter to help get his team the victory. This is now back-to-back strong fantasy performances from Hall who was sluggish there for a few games. The Jets are going to need him now more than ever with Garrett Wilson (knee) exiting this game. It's unclear if Wilson will be ready to go in time for the quick turnaround with a Thursday night matchup against the New England Patriots.
