Alexander Mattison Limited In Wednesday's Practice

11 months ago

Minnesota Vikings running back Alexander Mattison (ankle) was estimated as a limited participant in the team's walkthrough practice on Wednesday. A right-ankle sprain cost Mattison the team's Week 15 contest, but he returned in this past Sunday's loss to the division-rival Detroit Lions. However, the 25-year-old only played five offensive snaps and handled two carries for minus-one yard. Ty Chandler didn't exactly do much, either, with eight carries for 17 yards and a touchdown against a stout Lions run defense. Mattison should be active once again this Sunday evening versus the division-rival Green Bay Packers, but it's very possible that Chandler continues to handle the majority of the backfield touches. With a fantasy championship on the line in Week 17, we hope fantasy managers have better RB options than Mattison.
