Blake Corum vs Jordan Mason: Who Should You Start?
Blake Corum (7.0 PPG) and Jordan Mason (7.6 PPG) produced nearly identical fantasy numbers in 2025. When two running backs are this close on a per-game basis, the weekly matchup matters more than the season-long resume. Blake Corum played 17 games for the Los Angeles Rams; Jordan Mason suited up 16 times for the Minnesota Vikings.
A 0.6-point per-game gap over a full season is essentially noise. It means one extra catch, one fewer target, or a single broken play away from flipping the script. For a weekly start/sit call between these two, matchup analysis matters far more than the season line.
Both profile as early-down workhorses. Blake Corum ran for 746 yards and 6 touchdowns; Jordan Mason posted 758 and 6. Goal-line share, red zone touches, and which team is favored are usually the tiebreaker when neither back offers passing-game volume.
Both share a Week 6 bye, which matters for roster construction. If you are stacking running backs this deep on your bench, plan your replacement running back early.
