As training camp is set to begin this month, all eyes turn to the Vikings QB competition, but that isn’t the only high-stakes camp battle. The Vikings’ running back room is very interesting. Aaron Jones is back and figures to lead the group, but there have been whispers of reducing his usage to passing downs. Jordan Mason led the team in rushing last season with a 5.0 YPC average, but struggles in pass protection and with fumbles at times. Finally, there is Demond Claiborne, who was selected in the sixth round of the 2026 NFL Draft.
