Jones looks to rebound from a disappointing year that saw him suit up just 11 times and finish with his fewest rushing yards since his rookie season. He still averaged a solid 59.6 rushing yards per game, though. If he's healthy in 2024, Jones should be expected to have another 1,000-yard campaign.
While age has zapped some of Jones' upside, his enticing Week 1 matchup against a New York Giants defense that allowed the fourth-most rushing yards in 2023 makes the Vikings back a solid RB2 option in Week 1. He might not be the player he once was, but he can deliver strong results in this spot.

Calvin Ridley - Week 10 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks
BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3 ANALYSIS: Calvin Ridley now has eight or more targets in four straight weeks. After a massive 10-catch, 143-yard performance against Detroit in Week 8, Ridley's Week 9 outing was a bit muted as he secured just five catches for 73 yards. But with DeAndre Hopkins […]
Rachaad White - Week 10 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks
BALLER MOVE: Start POSITIONAL VALUE: RB3/FLEX ANALYSIS: Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White had an otherwise pedestrian day against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 9 salvaged by a touchdown run.
