Alexander Mattison Practices In Full
3 years agoMinnesota Vikings running back Alexander Mattison (ribs) took part in a full practice on Wednesday ahead of Week 1 against the Cincinnati Bengals. Mattison was injured in the team's second preseason game and hadn't done much since then, so this is a good sign of his availability this weekend. He'll once again enter the year as the backup to workhorse running back Dalvin Cook, who was probably the second overall pick after Christian McCaffrey in most fantasy leagues. Despite being second fiddle, Mattison has averaged 8.4 touches and 42.4 scrimmage yards per game the last two years, and he represents an excellent handcuff to one of the best running backs in the league.
