Alexander Mattison was handed the bell cow running back position at the start of this season.
The Vikings had moved on from perennial Pro-Bowler Dalvin Cook after six seasons, which in and of itself was a good enough decision – Cook signed a 1-year contract for a cool $7 million ($5.8 mill guaranteed) with the New York Jets, and has averaged just 16 yards per game as a mop-up running back on a 4-7 Jets team that is hemorrhaging on the offensive side of the ball.
