It looks like the St. Louis Rams have found their man in the backfield. Running back Tre Mason led the team with 38 snaps in a win over the San Francisco 49ers in Week 9, though he wasn't very productive with 19 rushes for 65 yards to go with one catch.
Fantasy football start/sit advice, Week 10: Tre Mason
Tre Mason has taken over as the Rams’ lead back. Should fantasy owners expect much more out of him?

He's not really playing on passing downs and had just two pass blocks last week, per Pro Football Focus. That's going to hurt him because he gets an awful matchup against the Arizona Cardinals this week.
The Cardinals are the worst matchup for fantasy running backs. They have shut down just about everyone they faced and the game is also going to be in Glendale. The Cards are also the first team to keep Dallas Cowboys running back DeMarco Murray under 100 yards.
Fantasy impact: While Tre La Soul is definitely worth owning in all leagues because he could be featured the rest of the way, this is just a terrible matchup for him. He’s a desperation flex.
