The Minnesota Vikings improved to 6-0 on Sunday—the league's last unbeaten team—but an important member of their offensive unit left the game with an injury.
Early in the fourth quarter, running back Aaron Jones aggravated an MCL sprain in his left knee when he was tackled following a 17-yard gain.
ESPN insider Adam Schefter reported Monday morning that the injury is “not considered to be significant at this time” and that a source says he’s “day to day.”
The news was surely a sigh of relief for the Vikings, as they just activated their other halfback Jordan Mason , who missed four games due to a fractured thumb that required surgery.
With the positive update on Jones and the return of Mason, we're taking stock of the fantasy implications.
