Mattison rushed eight times for 39 yards and brought in two of three targets for three yards in the Vikings' 22-17 win over the 49ers on Monday night.

EDGE Analysis

Mattison outpaced backfield mate Cam Akers by eight yards while compiling a team-high total, but the latter logged two additional carries. The workload split had been much more expansive between the two in Week 6 against the Bears, when Mattison had taken 18 carries to Akers' one. Whether the drastic change Monday night is indicative of what the division of labor between the two might look like moving forward remains to be seen, but both backs will have an appealing matchup against the Packers' suspect run defense on the road Week 8.
