Should I start Kaleb Johnson or Jordan Mason in Week 10?
Updated Nov 10, 10:11 AM ET. Week 11 answers post Tuesday.
Start Jordan Mason: 46 percent of the snaps and 51 percent of the carries over their last 3 games, against Kaleb Johnson's 19 percent of the snaps and 28 percent of the carries. No market projection is posted on either of them this week, so this is a usage call, and a lower confidence one than a call made on a projection. What follows is what each of them has done.
Should I drop Kaleb Johnson for Jordan Mason?
Yes, on the rest of the season. Jordan Mason projects 59 market-implied PPR points from Week 10 through Week 17 (7.4 a game over 8 games), Kaleb Johnson 5 (0.7 a game over 7 games).
