Not if one’s intent is to break up ground beef into smaller bits while it’s cooking up in a non-stick pan. I’ve always used a non-stick pan safe spatula for that, but – being single-blade – it takes awhile. A multi-blade utensil would make much quicker work of it. A potato masher’s openings would make things very slow going while simultaneously flattening the beef instead of breaking it up.
