Aaron Jones' fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks for Week 18 (2023). Should you should start or sit Aaron Jones for fantasy football lineups?
BALLER MOVE: Start in All Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: RB1
ANALYSIS: Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones has dealt with injuries throughout the season, significantly limiting his fantasy output. However, the 29-year-old has finally regained full health for the stretch run. In the last three games, he has played at least 48 percent of the snaps and carried the ball 41 times over the last two games.
Weeks 16 and 17 marked the first occasions this year that the veteran rushed for over 100 yards, and one of these games was against a top-15 DVOA rush defense in Minnesota last week.
In Week 18, the Packers face the Bears, who have allowed the eighth-most points per game to running backs this season. Despite the Bears being fourth in DVOA against the run, Jones had a standout performance in their Week 1 meeting. He rushed nine times for 41 yards and a touchdown, adding two catches for 86 yards and another touchdown, accumulating just under 27 PPR points—his season-high.
With AJ Dillon (neck, thumb) ruled out for Week 18, Jones has an opportunity to operate as a true workhorse. Consequently, he ranks as a low-end RB1 ahead of this crucial must-win game for the Packers.
