Aaron Jones

Aaron Jones will sign a one-year, $7 million contract with Minnesota when the new league year opens up.

Fantasy Impact

Jones coming to Minnesota hurts the potential breakout of Ty Chandler, who was talked up by coaches during the 2024 combine. Jones addition doesn’t put Minnesota out of the running for adding depth via the draft, but he does give them a nice veteran option who still shows some explosiveness compared to a running back class that is largely lackluster.

The Vikings and RB Aaron Jones have agreed to terms.

Fantasy Impact

Jones will join the Packers’ division rival just one day after he was released by the team. Fantasy managers should expect Jones to serve as the team’s RB1 heading into the 2024 season.

The Minnesota Vikings have reportedly expressed interest in Aaron Jones.

Fantasy Impact

Jones was released by the Packers on Monday after the two sides couldn't agree to restructure his deal and Green Bay signed Josh Jacobs. Jones was reportedly said to already have suitors with Minnesota being one of them. Alexander Mattison led the Vikings backfield last season with Ty Chandler taking over late in the year.

The Packers have informed RB Aaron Jones that he is being released.

Fantasy Impact

Jones is now set to be a free agent after talks reportedly broke down between the two sides, as the Packers were looking to lower Jones cap hit. With the team signing Josh Jacobs earlier today, Jones will now be free to find a new team heading into the 2024 season.

Green Bay Packers RB Aaron Jones (knee, finger) does not have a designated injury status for the team's divisional-round matchup with the San Francisco 49ers.

Fantasy Impact

Jones was limited to open the week due to his injury, but it was likely a form of injury/load management as the Packers look to preserve one of their best veteran weapons for a tough matchup. Jones had 131 scrimmage yards and three rushing TDs against Dallas in the first round, and with AJ Dillon hurt, the Packers will rely on Jones.
