Aaron Jones Not Present Thursday
3 years agoGreen Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones (knee) is not present at practice on Thursday. Jones was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday, so this could be a setback for the 27-year-old after he sprained his right MCL back in Week 10. The Packers could also be resting their RB ahead of a Week 15 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens. We should have more clarity on the situation by Friday. In any event, Jones' fantasy stock is down heading into the first week of the fantasy playoffs in most leagues after he's been out-touched by backfield mate A.J. Dillon each of the last two weeks. On top of it, the Ravens defense has given up the fewest rushing yards per game (85.5) in 2021. Jones is trending down as an RB2 with concerns about his knee. Dillon would become a must-start with RB1 upside if Jones cannot go this weekend.
