Andrew Erickson· Sep 19, 2025
Erickson gave his own Week 3 running back ranks, high on Jordan Mason as an RB1 and relatively positive on Pacheco and Skattaboo, and predicted Kenneth Walker would out-snap Zach Charbonnet this week.
“I think it's Jordan Mason all wheels up and I think that he can be used as a three down bellcal.”
