Jordan Mason totals 42 yards in Week 9

Minnesota Vikings RB Jordan Mason had six carries for 35 yards in Week 9 versus the Buffalo Bills . Mason added two receptions (on three targets) for seven yards. SOURCE: USA TODAY Why It Matters: While it was undeniably a low bar, Mason probably played the best out of anyone on Minnesota's offense in Week 9, turning his eight combined touches into 42 yards. That was double what Aaron Jones did with his six opportunities. There are all kinds of issues for the Vikings' offense right now, and if they don't get improved quarterback play, teams will just stack the box and dare Minnesota to beat them over the top. We'll see what adjustments Kevin O'Connell makes. For now, though, Mason tops out as a flex option.
