Jordan Mason Fantasy Football Outlook (2024)

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Aug 29th 2024, 9:52am EDT

With Elijah Mitchell on the IR for the year and Mason crushing camp, he is the clear RB2 for the 49ers. He should be one of the most sought-after handcuffs in fantasy drafts this season. Mason hasn't seen the field much over the last two seasons (83 carries), but when he has, he has been productive. Since 2022, among 78 qualifying backs, he ranks second in yards after contact per attempt and 21st in missed tackles forced per attempt (per PFF). If Christian McCaffrey misses any time this season, Mason would be an automatic top-15 back in fantasy for the week.
