Aaron Jones Sr.

Aaron Jones Sr. carried the ball 18 times for 53 yards and one touchdown while also catching three of his four targets for 10 yards in the Vikings' 23-10 Week 17 win over the Lions.

Fantasy Impact

Jones Sr. continues a productive stretch out of the Minnesota backfield, finishing with 65 or more offensive yards in each of his last four games. The veteran running back will look to finish an underwhelming season on a positive note in Week 18 against the Green Bay Packers.

Aaron Jones Sr. was limited in practice on Tuesday.

Fantasy Impact

Jones could be in line for a big role with Jordan Mason not expected to play this week. The concern is how the offense moves the ball with Max Brosmer behind center. He'll be a volume-based RB3 play for fantasy managers.

Aaron Jones Sr. was listed as a DNP on Monday’s estimated practice report.

Fantasy Impact

Jordan Mason was also listed as a DNP, though that was more expected with him getting carted off the field. Jones finished Sunday's win over the Giants. He could be in line for a bigger role in Week 17 if he is healthy and Mason is sidelined.

Aaron Jones Sr. carried the ball 21 times for 85 yards while also hauling in two of his three targets for eight yards in the Vikings' 16-13 Week 16 win over the Giants.

Fantasy Impact

Jones Sr. has offered modest production out of the Minnesota backfield, rushing for over 75 yards in two of his last three games. The veteran running back remains a risky lineup option as part of an inconsistent Minnesota offense to this point, with a Week 17 Christmas Day matchup against the Detroit Lions up next.

Aaron Jones Sr. (ankle) has returned to the Vikings game against the Giants on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact

Jones briefly left the game with an ankle injury but is back in. He should take on as much work as he can handle with Jordan Mason currently dealing with an ankle injury of his own. Zavier Scott will operate as the primary backup.
