With Dalvin Cook on the shelf for their Week 3 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks, the Minnesota Vikings turned to Alexander Mattison to carry the load on the ground in a must-win game. He responded with the best performance of his career, and now he’s getting recognized for it.
Mattison is one of three nominees for the FedEx Ground Player of the Week Award for Week 3 of the 2021 NFL season.
Mattison had his way with the Seattle defense for most of the afternoon on Sunday, as he picked up his second career 100-yard game.
