Emanuel Wilson vs Jordan Mason: Who Should You Start?
Deciding between Emanuel Wilson and Jordan Mason is a common lineup dilemma for fantasy managers. The Seattle Seahawks running back put up 5.1 PPG in 2025 over 17 games; Jordan Mason of the Minnesota Vikings averaged 7.6 in 16. A 2.5-point margin that could shift on any given week.
The per-game difference of 2.5 points favors Jordan Mason, though savvy managers know that gap can shrink or widen depending on the weekly slate. Defensive matchup, recent scoring trends, and health status all shift the calculus from one running back to the other.
Both profile as early-down workhorses. Emanuel Wilson ran for 496 yards and 3 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.
One scheduling note: Emanuel Wilson is off Week 10 and Jordan Mason Week 6. If these two are on your roster, you will need a fill-in running back for both weeks. DraftCall flags bye conflicts so you can plan ahead rather than panic on waivers.
