Zavier Scott

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Jones "is likely to be considered day-to-day" with his injury. Jones exited in the third quarter of Sunday's shutout loss to the Seahawks and didn't return to the field. The phrasing in Schefter's report suggests the Vikings are still waiting to get a final word on Jones' injury, but it sounds like he avoided the worst. If he is day-to-day, Jones will have a chance to suit up in Week 14 when the Vikings face the Commanders this week, but if he's unable to go, we can expect Jordan Mason to step into a lead role with Zavier Scott likely working in on passing downs.

Scott could see an increased role in Week 14 if Aaron Jones misses time with the shoulder injury he sustained in the second half of the team's loss against Seattle. Jones has a history of shoulder ailments and was quickly pulled from the game. Jordan Mason would likely take over as the Vikings' lead back, but it could be Scott who takes on the pass-catching tole with Jones sidelined. Scott had a six-catch game in Week 3 with Jones out. He should be picked up in deeper leagues.
