Who Should I Start? Tyler Goodson or Jordan Mason

The Indianapolis Colts signed running back Tyler Goodson from their practice squad to the active 53-man roster on Tuesday. The team also added defensive end Zach McCloud and wide receivers Jaydon Mickens and Juwann Winfree to their practice squad while letting offensive guard Lewis Kidd go from the practice squad. The Colts RB depth chart has thinned out entering a Week 16 tilt against the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday with both Zack Moss (shoulder) and Jonathan Taylor (thumb) up in the air to play. Moss was injured in Saturday's win over the Pittsburgh Steelers, while Taylor has missed the last three games following thumb surgery. If neither Moss nor Taylor can play this weekend, expect the Colts to use a combination of Goodson and Trey Sermon out of their backfield against the Falcons.

San Francisco 49ers running back Jordan Mason had the opportunity for a big workload in a Week 18 regular season finale against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday in a game in which the Niners were resting plenty of players with a first-round bye in the playoffs already locked up. However, Elijah Mitchell led the team with 14 carries for 52 yards and a touchdown, while Mason had only six rushing attempts and gained 36 yards on the ground. He added one catch for a 12-yard pickup. Mason wraps up his second regular season in the NFL with 40 rushing attempts for 206 yards and three touchdowns in 17 games, adding three receptions for 31 yards. The 24-year-old mostly played special teams in 2023 while serving as the No. 3 behind Christian McCaffrey and Mitchell, which will likely continue when the team resumes play in the Divisional Round in two weeks.
