Mattison gained one yard on two carries and had one reception for no yards on his only target in Sunday's win at Washington.

EDGE Analysis

Mattison played on just nine of the offense's 66 snaps (14 percent) as he had a limited reserve role behind a healthy Dalvin Cook. His snap share has trended downward this season with 24 percent or less the past three games, giving him little fantasy value barring a Cook injury. Mattison still is one of the more valuable backup running backs in the league given his production when thrust into the starting lineup.

Mattison rushed five times for 40 yards and a touchdown in the Vikings' 34-26 win over the Cardinals on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

The accomplished backup made excellent use of his scant opportunity, ripping off a 15-yard gain on one of his five carries and contributing a seven-yard touchdown run on another tote. Mattison's score was his second on the ground this season, and the five touches on the ground were a welcome sight after he'd logged a season-low one against the Dolphins back in Week 6 prior to the bye.

Mattison (shoulder) logged three yards on his lone carry and played just six of the Vikings' 50 snaps on offense in Sunday's 24-16 win over the Dolphins.

EDGE Analysis

Listed as questionable heading into Sunday, Mattison was cleared to play but handled a more limited role than usual while nursing a shoulder injury. The Vikings leaned more heavily on lead back Dalvin Cook (88 percent snap share, 14 touches for 83 yards and a touchdown) as a result, while Mattison played his fewest snaps of the season. Assuming he escaped the contest with no further setbacks to his shoulder, Mattison should see his opportunities pick up in the weeks to come. When he was healthier in the Vikings' first five games, Mattison took on snap shares between 23 and 46 percent.

Mattison is active for Sunday's matchup against the Dolphins.

EDGE Analysis

Mattison picked up a shoulder injury during the Vikings' Week 5 win over the Bears and was limited at each practice ahead of Week 6, earning him a questionable designation. As expected, the backup running back will be available, but it's unclear how much work he'll get behind Dalvin Cook. Mattison turned a season-high 12 touches into 40 scrimmage yards last week and has totaled 37 touches for 154 yards and two scores across five appearances this year.

Mattison (shoulder), officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Dolphins, is expected to play, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Mattison logged limited practices all week after suffering the injury in Minnesota's Week 5 win over Chicago. He earned a season-high 12 touches in that game but could see his workload scaled back moving forward as Dalvin Cook remains the clear lead back in Minnesota. Mattison's status will become official just prior to the 1pm ET kickoff Sunday.

Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell said Mattison (shoulder) will be listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

According to Ben Goessling of the Minneapolis Star Tribune, O'Connell thinks Mattison will be able to suit up Sunday, but official confirmation on the running back's status won't come one way or the other until the Vikings release their inactive list 90 minutes prior to the 1 p.m. ET kickoff. If available, Mattison should handle his usual complementary role behind Dalvin Cook, though Mattison could see at least a slight drop from the season-high 46 percent snap share and 12 touches he took on during last week's win over the Bears.

Mattison (shoulder) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Mattison maintained his activity level from Wednesday's session, giving him just one more opportunity to get back to full this week. Even if he enters the weekend with a game-day designation, there's been no indication that he's in danger of sitting out Sunday at Miami. Assuming he's available, Mattison would be poised for modest work behind starting running back Dalvin Cook, which has amounted to 7.4 touches for 30.4 yards from scrimmage per game and two total TDs across five contests this season.

Mattison was a limited participant in practice Wednesday due to a shoulder injury.

EDGE Analysis

Mattison played a season-high 43 percent of snaps on offense in a Week 5 win over Chicago, though his 12 touches netted only 41 yards. Meanwhile, Dalvin Cook took 20 touches for 121 yards and a pair of touchdowns. Mattison has seen a bit more work than in past seasons ever since Cook dislocated his problematic shoulder, but the starter hasn't missed a game yet, and it's now the backup who is bothered by a shoulder injury. In any case, Mattison's practice participation Wednesday -- even in a limited capacity -- suggests he's more likely than not to play this Sunday in Miami.

Mattison had nine carries for 19 yards and three receptions for 21 yards on four targets in Sunday's win over Chicago.

EDGE Analysis

Mattison played on a season-high 46 percent of the offensive snaps (34 of 79) and got a decent workload even with Dalvin Cook having a strong game (18 carries for 94 yards and two touchdowns). However, it's hard to count on a workload even this large for Mattison unless Cook gets hurt.

Mattison had three carries for three yards and one reception for a 15-yard touchdown on his lone target in Sunday's win over New Orleans in London.

EDGE Analysis

With Dalvin Cook able to play despite a shoulder injury, Mattison returned to his reserve role and played about the usual number of snaps. Cook's chronic dislocated shoulder issue didn't appear to have any setback, so Mattison again should have a reserve role Week 5 against the Bears.
