Alec Pierce, 5 NFL Players That Deserve More Snaps in Week 2
The immediate challenge is that the Minnesota Vikings take on the San Francisco 49ers in Week 2. On paper, the matchup will likely not be especially positive for Minnesota.
From a long-term perspective, however, Ty Chandler should be a larger part of the Vikings’ plans.
Yes, they have Aaron Jones. The former rival running back had a solid debut with the franchise, rushing for 94 yards and a touchdown while catching two passes for 15 yards. Jones will, at least for 2024, be Minnesota’s primary runner when healthy.
Jones has only played a full season twice in seven years, though. It seems wise for the Vikings to place a higher priority on a rotation; Chandler handled just five carries before garbage time in Week 1.
