Shark Bites

Vikings RB Aaron Jones went 9-78-0 on the ground while hauling in both his targets for 20 yards. Though he didn’t score a TD, Jones’ 8.7 yards per carry offers a glimmer of hope for his fantasy future. But that was propped up a bit by a 31-yard scamper. Unfortunately, his split with Jordan Mason continues to crush both players’ fantasy values. Mason went 10-36-0 on the ground, catching his only target for a yard.

Vikings QB J.J. McCarthy (ankle) put in a full week of practice and is off the final injury report. He’ll start Sunday’s game vs. the Lions. McCarthy played well in one of eight quarters to open the season. We’ll see if he can get rolling coming off the extended absence, but he can’t be trusted as more than a low-end QB2 in fantasy lineups. McCarthy also adds a bit more downside to WRs Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison.
