ANALYSIS: Jones would touch the ball just once in his return to action after missing two weeks with an MCL sprain, but he made it count. The fifth-round rookie had just celebrated his 23rd birthday on Saturday and celebrated his health by winning the game for Green Bay with a 20-yard touchdown against Tampa Bay.
Jamaal Williams owns this backfield right now, but Ty Montgomery is out and Jones becomes the clear handcuff with potential for a “1B” role in an offense that -- thanks to Jones’ scamper -- will likely get Aaron Rodgers back in Week 15. A Rodgers-led offense is a fantasy gold mine, which could give Jones flex value even if Williams stays healthy and in good favor with coaches.
