Aaron Jones finds a huge hole on a 19-yard rush Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones rushes for 19 yards.
Solid numbers in return Jones (knee) rushed 13 times for 53 yards and brought in all four targets for 16 yards in the Packers' 34-20 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday.
Impact Making his return from a three-game absence, Jones served as the unquestioned lead back with only Patrick Taylor and Kenyan Drake behind him due to AJ Dillion's (thumb) absence. However, game script eventually turned away from the running game for Green Bay, limiting Jones' overall opportunities. Nevertheless, the veteran back appeared to make it through the game unscathed, and he could be set for an even heavier workload in a Week 16 road matchup versus a Panthers team Green Bay should be able to control the game against.

Returning to action Sunday Jones (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
Impact Jones has missed three consecutive contests due to an MCL sprain, but he'll return to action Week 15 after being listed as limited Wednesday through Friday. The impetus may be the fact that fellow running back AJ Dillon is tending to a broken thumb that will sideline him for the first time this season, but Jones himself seems like the best bet to lead the Packers backfield Sunday considering Patrick Taylor and Kenyan Drake are the other available options. Even during an injury-plagued 2023, Jones has averaged 3.7 yards on his 66 carries, hauled in 19 of 30 targets for 169 yards and scored three touchdowns in parts of seven games.

Unlikely to play Thursday Coach Matt LaFleur said Tuesday that Jones (knee) is "highly unlikely" to play Thursday at Detroit, but he doesn't believe the running back will be placed on injured reserve, Ryan...
Impact LaFleur's comment backs up a report from Adam Schefter of ESPN earlier Tuesday that Jones has an MCL sprain and is deemed week-to-week after getting injured this past Sunday against the Chargers. Jones predictably has been listed as a non-participant on both of the Packers' Week 12 practice reports, while AJ Dillon (groin) has been listed as limited and Emanuel Wilson (shoulder) has been a DNP on both occasions. Assuming Jones sits out Thursday, Dillon would be in line for the top gig out of Green Bay's backfield, assuming he's healthy enough to play himself.

Has MCL sprain, likely out Week 12 Jones has been diagnosed with an MCL sprain and is considered week-to-week, making him unlikely to play Thursday at Detroit, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Impact Jones went down with a knee injury late in the second quarter of Sunday's eventual win against the Chargers, during which he was carted to the locker room. After undergoing an MRI on Monday, the extent of the damage has been unveiled. Considering Jones isn't slated to be available Thursday and reserve RB Emanuel Wilson (shoulder) isn't practicing this week, AJ Dillon (groin) appears poised to be Green Bay's lead runner Week 12 and potentially beyond, assuming he's able to suit up. Beyond Dillon, Patrick Taylor was signed off the Patriots' practice squad Monday, while James Robinson and Ellis Merriweather are backfield options on the Packers' practice squad.

Estimated as DNP Monday Jones (knee) was estimated as DNP on Monday's practice reports.
Impact The Packers didn't actually practice Monday but were required to release an injury report ahead of Thursday's game against the Lions. Jones was injured early in Sunday's win over the Chargers and had to be carted to the locker room. Reports after the game suggested Jones avoided a serious injury, but Thursday's quick turnaround may be too much to overcome. If Jones doesn't play, the Packers will lean on AJ Dillon and Patrick Taylor.

Chargers Injury Report: Green Bay RB Aaron Jones Leaves LA Game After Nasty Spill The injuries are piling up
NOVEMBER 19, 2023 • STAR-TELEGRAM.COM
Ruled out with knee injury Jones (knee) won't return to Sunday's contest against the Chargers.
Impact Jones has been plagued by a hamstring injury for most of the season, and he now is dealing with a new health concern after he appeared to get his leg stuck in the turf as he was tackled on a carry just minutes before halftime. He'll thus finish Week 11 with four carries for 14 yards and one catch (on two targets) for three yards. With Emanuel Wilson (shoulder) also departing the game for good on the same drive, AJ Dillon is the only healthy running back for the Packers for the rest of Sunday.

Injures knee Sunday Jones suffered a knee injury during Sunday's game versus the Chargers, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Impact Jones got medical attention on the field following a carry late in the second quarter in which his leg appeared to get stuck in the turf as he was tackled. He then was assisted to the sideline tent and eventually took a cart to the locker room, from which the Packers deemed him questionable to return. With Jones sidelined, AJ Dillon should be the main beneficiary out of the Packers backfield.

No injury designation Jones (hamstring) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game against the Chargers.
Impact This will be Jones' fifth straight appearance since missing three of four games with a hamstring injury between Weeks 2 and 5. His role was limited for a couple weeks after returning, but he played 57 and 56 percent of snaps in the past two games while taking 24 and 17 touches. Jones should be busy again this Sunday against a struggling Chargers defense.

Cleared to play again Jones (hamstring) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at Pittsburgh, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Impact The Packers continue to limit Jones' practice reps even after he handled 24 touches and 57 percent snap share in a 20-3 win over the Rams last week. A similar role is possible this Sunday, though perhaps not guaranteed, as AJ Dillon has often taken on more work with Jones bothered by a hamstring injury since Week 1. The bigger concern for Week 10 might be the Packers listing three of their starting offensive linemen as questionable; the good news for Jones is that all three managed some level of practice participation this week.
