Vikings Trade for 49ers RB Jordan Mason

News summary

The San Francisco 49ers traded running back Jordan Mason to the Minnesota Vikings, receiving a 2026 sixth-round pick and swapping the 160th and 187th picks in this year's draft. Mason, who was undrafted in 2022 and emerged as a key player during Christian McCaffrey's injury, has signed a two-year contract with the Vikings valued at up to $12 million, with $7 million guaranteed. His transfer to the Vikings bolsters their backfield alongside Aaron Jones, potentially altering Minnesota's draft strategy. Mason's 2024 season was his most productive, with 789 rushing yards and three touchdowns in 12 games before a high-ankle sprain ended his season. The move follows the Vikings' recent roster changes and signifies a strategic upgrade for their running game.
