The Minnesota Vikings have placed running back Aaron Jones on the injured reserve list due to a hamstring injury.<\/p>\n
This situation will leave him out of action for a minimum of four games.<\/p>\n
Given Jones’ absence, Jordan Mason is expected to handle the majority of the carries.<\/p>\n
The Vikings also plan to re-sign Cam Akers, who has had two separate stints with the team.<\/p>\n
Jones, 30, suffered the injury in Sunday’s game against the Atlanta Falcons, where he gained 23 yards on five carries.<\/p>\n
In the Week 1 victory against the Chicago Bears, Jones had a similar performance, rushing for 23 yards on five attempts.<\/p>\n
Mason, acquired via a trade with the 49ers in March, signed a two-year contract with the Vikings. In the first two games with Minnesota, he has accumulated 98 yards on 24 carries and three receptions for 15 yards.<\/p>\n
Zavier Scott is also available in the Vikings’ running back corps.<\/p>\n
Ty Chandler is on the injured reserve list due to a knee injury.<\/p>\n
Akers, 26 years old, has played in Minnesota in two periods (2023 and 2024), joining the team through trades during the season.<\/p>\n
The Vikings have been active this week due to injuries to J.J. McCarthy and Jones. The team also reached an agreement with quarterback Desmond Ridder.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
