As part of their effort to get under the salary cap, the Minnesota Vikings will be parting ways with running back Aaron Jones. That leaves Jordan Mason as their No. 1 running back, as should've been the case all season last season outside of the one game he missed.
But Mason has a notable shortcoming in his game. The Vikings, and the San Francisco 49ers before them, have been unwilling to use him as a pass catcher even when he has stepped into a big role.
A huge part of that is how bad he is as a pass blocker, with Pro Football Focus crediting him with 11 pressures allowed on 65 pass blocking snaps last season.
