BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 45% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Alexander Mattison’s availability has surged and declined based on the health of Dalvin Cook since Mattison's 2019 rookie year. This process has been repeated once again this season as Mattison's rostership percentage soared when Cook was contending with a troublesome shoulder.
That percentage has steadily decreased as Cook has remained on the field. However, Mattison’s proximity to an enormous workload remains fully intact, as does his continued status as an exceptional handcuff option should Cook suddenly become unavailable at any point of the season.
Cook has been operating with a 71% snap share although his average of 16.4 attempts per game remains below his average from 2017-2021 (18). Mattison has attained a 29% snap share while functioning in a backup role although his average of 4.6 attempts per game is also below his average from 2019-2021 (7.9).
However, his weekly touch total would approach Cook’s current workload if Cook would be sidelined for any reason. He remains available in blank percent of all leagues and would approach RB1 status if he would operate as Minnesota’s lead back. That provides the incentive to secure him this week.
