  • Vikings' Ty Chandler: Bottled up by Jets

    Chandler rushed the ball 14 times for 30 yards in Sunday's 23-17 win over the Jets. He added two receptions on two targets for nine yards.

    Chandler had the chance to serve as Minnesota's lead back for three quarters in Sunday's win with Aaron Jones suffering a hip injury. Positively, he accounted for 14 of the 18 rushing attempts after setting aside Jones' touches. However, he lost a goal-line touch to C.J. Ham in the second quarter. Chandler's long-term fantasy usefulness is also unclear with the Vikings heading into a Week 6 bye.

  • Vikings' Ty Chandler: Small workload in win

    Chandler had three carries for five yards and one reception for eight yards in Sunday's win at Green Bay.

    Aaron Jones was on a roll early in the game and finished with 22 carries for 93 yards rushing along with four receptions for 46 yards. Chandler played just eight snaps on offense compared to 56 for Jones. The Vikings likely stuck with Jones while he was hot, and his return to Green Bay may have been a factor as well. Either way, Chandler will likely get a larger share of the workload in most games, but is a clear second option behind Jones.

  • Vikings' Ty Chandler: Just seven carries in win

    Chandler had seven carries for 13 yards in Sunday's win over Houston.

    Chandler played on 22 of the offense's 63 snaps as Aaron Jones got the bulk of work. Jones had 19 carries for 102 yards and five receptions for 46 yards and a touchdown while playing on 38 snaps on offense. Chandler will have more productive games like in Week 2 (10 carries for 82 yards) but will likely see a smaller workload when Jones is healthy and rolling.

  • Vikings' Ty Chandler: Outperforms Jones in win

    Chandler rushed 10 times for 82 yards in the Vikings' 23-17 win over the 49ers on Sunday. He was also sacked on a pass attempt.

    Chandler blew backfield mate Aaron Jones away in production, as he outgained the veteran back by a full 50 rushing yards on just one additional carry. Chandler's lack of involvement in the passing game wasn't ideal, but considering he recorded three receptions Week 1 and 21 last season in part-time duty, his absence from the air attack is likely just a one-game outlier. Chandler's explosiveness combined with the desire to keep Jones fresh throughout the long season, and the latter's fumble at the shadow of the goal line Sunday should help lock in another solid role for Chandler in Week 3 against the Texans.

  • Vikings' Ty Chandler: Solid complementary role in win

    Chandler rushed eight times for 17 yards and brought in all three targets for 25 yards in the Vikings' 28-6 win over the Giants on Sunday.

    Chandler had a robust No. 2 role behind Aaron Jones, seeing only six fewer carries than his new backfield mate and drawing one additional target. The third-year back could remain similarly involved as the season unfolds, considering Jones' veteran status and the goal of keeping him healthy throughout the campaign. Chandler could continue to have some utility in deeper PPR leagues in Week 2, as Minnesota will welcome a 49ers team that could help generate a game script in which the Vikings are trailing in the second half and therefore afford the versatile back plenty of snaps.

  • Vikings' Ty Chandler: Wins kick return job

    Chandler will serve as Minnesota's primary kick returner in addition to working as the backup running back behind Aaron Jones, Mark Craig of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

    He'll replace Kene Nwangwu in the role after Nwangwu was released last week. Brandon Powell will be the second deep man on kickoffs. Chandler should have added value in leagues that value kick return yards.
