Alexander Mattison News
Minnesota Vikings running back Alexander Mattison got the starting nod once again with Dalvin Cook on the reserve/COVID-19 list in Week 16. While the rushing production wasn't there with only 41 yards on 13 carries, Mattison did find his way into the end zone. Adding three catches for 29 yards receiving, Mattison provided decent numbers for his fantasy managers. With Cook's status for Week 17 still up in the air, Mattison could be asked to carry the load again in the division matchup against the Green Bay Packers.
The Minnesota Vikings activated running back Alexander Mattison from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Wednesday. Mattison is unvaccinated and was required to quarantine for 10 days, but he's now eligible to return for the Week 16 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. The 23-year-old is one of the best fantasy football handcuffs behind Dalvin Cook. But he should remain on your benches this weekend with Cook healthy as the team's workhorse running back.
Minnesota Vikings running back Alexander Mattison proved once again in Week 13 that he is the most reliable backup running back in fantasy football. Filling in for an injured Dalvin Cook, Mattison put up 124 total yards and a rushing touchdown in the loss to the Detroit Lions. With a short week and the Pittsburgh Steelers on the schedule for Thursday night football, Mattison will likely be called on to replace Cook once more. He will face a Steeler defense that gives up the 11th most fantasy points to opposing running backs on the season, setting up Mattison for another big performance. Mattison is averaging 23.6 PPR points per game as the starting running back this year and fantasy managers can expect another RB1 performance Thursday night.
