Alexander Mattison Picks Up DNP Tag Tuesday
1 year agoMinnesota Vikings running back Alexander Mattison (ankle) was listed as a non-participant on the Tuesday's estimated practice report due to an ankle injury that he suffered in the Week 14 win over the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday. He was able to pick up 66 yards on the ground on 10 carries on Sunday before departing the game due to a low right-ankle sprain. We won't know until later in the week if the 25-year-old will be able to play in Week 15's contest against the Cincinnati Bengals on Saturday. In the meantime, fantasy managers need to prepare for the possibility that Minnesota's lead back misses this week. If that happens, Ty Chandler would operate as the Vikings' primary ball-carrier out of the backfield, giving him clear RB2 upside in a plus matchup. If Chandler is available on your waiver wire and you're in a pickle at the RB position, pick him up now.
