Alexander Mattison Ruled Out For Week 15

Alexander Mattison Ruled Out For Week 15

11 months ago

Minnesota Vikings running back Alexander Mattison (ankle) has been ruled out for Week 15's game against the Cincinnati Bengals. The ankle injury that forced Mattison out of Week 14's game against the Raiders kept him out of practice all week, and now the backfield will be in the hands of Ty Chandler. Chandler had fantasy circles rumbling about a possible depth chart shake-up after he out-carried Mattison in Week 10 and then logged 110 yards from scrimmage the next week. No such change was ever made official, but now Chandler will operate as Minnesota's lead rusher and may see a fair amount of check-downs from quarterback Nick Mullens. Fantasy managers should be aware that the Vikings are in one of Week 15's three Saturday games and should plan accordingly.
