BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 29% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Is Ty Chandler in a timeshare or a handcuff to Aaron Jones? Either way, it's best to make sure he's rostered in most fantasy football leagues.
The third-year runner got 11 touches in Minnesota's Week 1 victory over the Giants. That number decreased to 10 against San Francisco, but his impressive running drew the attention of the fantasy football community.

Jones briefly left the game in the second half with an injury. He did return to the game, but we've seen injuries rear their ugly head after the adrenaline wears off. If Jones were to miss any time, Chandler would immediately be in the flex conversation.
With both backs healthy, Chandler is bench depth that can be started in a pinch. So far, he's been good for 10+ touches. That's not a surprise. The Vikings said that Chandler would have a role all off-season. The surprise is that Sam Darnold and the Minnesota offense are better than we gave them credit for.
