Jordan Mason and Aaron Jones find themselves in a committee after Mason had managed to hold the fort in a semi-bellcow role when Jones was hurt earlier this year. Jones has yet to log a full practice this week per the official Minnesota Vikings injury report, setting the stage for extra carries for Mason and fewer for himself.

Additionally, managers should consider letting the Jalen Nailor ride continue if they require a waiver wire receiver with boom potential. J.J. McCarthy might have found a new favorite receiver for the moment after he earned 124 yards and a touchdown in Week 10.

Colston Loveland has emerged as the team's go-to tight end, realizing the fears many had for Cole Kmet when the rookie was drafted. Rome Odunze has been dominant in his second season, so starting him should not be viewed as a huge gamble.

Must Starts

• Jordan Mason
• Justin Jefferson
• Jalen Nailor
• Colston Loveland
• Rome Odunze

Chicago has a stiffer defense to contend with than Minnesota, so they have the majority of the players one should strongly consider benching. DJ Moore's health is a question, and he failed to deliver a single point against the New York Giants in Week 10, so one should not bother diving into the weeds with Moore this week.

Cole Kmet has been a fantasy football disaster in 2025, logging just 31 yards since Oct. 13, so don't expect the pattern to change against Minnesota in Week 11. Luther Burden III has been disastrous in some weeks and borderline usable in others. The reward hasn't been worth the risk, so one should not take the plunge this week on him.

Olamide Zaccheaus has managed to do enough to be a regular contributor to Chicago from a narrative standpoint, but with just one touchdown this season and zero games with more than 58 yards, the ceiling is low enough to be fit a Hobbit.

Must Sits

• DJ Moore
• Olamide Zaccheaus
• Cole Kmet
• Luther Burden III
