Tony Jones Jr. Week 3 Outlook - Cowboys at Cardinals

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Fri, Sep 22nd 2023, 3:18pm EDT

Jones Jr. could be the Saints bellcow this week. Jamaal Williams is sidelined with a hamstring issue. Kendre Miller could be out again this week. Jones Jr. played 52% of the snaps last week with 12 carries and 34 rushing yards (two rushing scores). Jones Jr. isn't a flashy player by any means, with his career 2.00 yards after contact per attempt and 20 elusive rating. If you're plugging him into your lineup as a flex or higher, it's related to volume and matchup. Green Bay has the third-lowest stuff rate while allowing the third-most missed tackles and the third-highest rate of 10-plus yard runs. Week 3 Positional Value: RB3 with RB2 upside
