Aaron Jones, who previously thrived as a dual-threat back with the Green Bay Packers, is now facing increased competition with his move to the Minnesota Vikings. The Vikings have bolstered their backfield by acquiring Jordan Mason from the San Francisco 49ers, setting the stage for a potentially competitive split in carries.

Jones, now 30, had a robust start in the league, earning high rushing grades, but injuries have plagued him, and his performance waned recently. Mason, who had a solid start filling in for Christian McCaffrey, presents a real challenge to Jones’ role. While Jones remains involved in the passing game, the Vikings' offensive structure under Kevin O’Connell raises questions about his volume in a run-heavy scheme.
