He's been working with the starting unit and reportedly sounds like he's ready to go for a much easier matchup. Washington's defense actually fared well against the Miami Dolphins, but it was a windy atmosphere to possibly limit quarterback Ryan Tannehill.
Even though Mason didn't play, there were some encouraging signs. Quarterback Nick Foles stretched the field, which should really help open up the running game a bit. Plus, the Rams front line held their own against a terrific Seattle front seven.
Additionally, running back Todd Gurley has not been ruled out. If Gurley can go, it'll likely be a timeshare split. Gurley has not played this season or in the preseason due to an ACL tear last year.
Fantasy impact: If Mason plays and Gurley is out, he’s a decent flex option. If Gurley goes, it’ll be tough to count on Mason.
