The Minnesota Vikings placed running back Jordan Mason on injured reserve Wednesday after he underwent surgery to repair a fractured thumb, according to ESPN.
ESPN reported that Mason had the procedure done to address the injury, which led to the team's decision to move him to injured reserve.
The move means Mason will be unavailable to the Vikings for a minimum period as dictated by NFL injured reserve rules, though further details on his expected recovery timeline were not immediately available from the source.
The Vikings have not yet publicly detailed how they plan to adjust their running back depth chart in Mason's absence, according to the report.
