Aaron Jones Faces Tough Matchup In Week 16
5 years agoGreen Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones faces a tough test against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 16. Jones has averaged 13 carries per game but only two receptions per game in his last five contests. The 24-year-old has managed to salvage fantasy value several times with his knack for scoring touchdowns in the red zone- and that could be the case again this week against the eighth-ranked run defense of the Vikings. Jones did have a season-high 27 touches against Minnesota in Week 2, turning them into 150 scrimmage yards. It's not likely he sees a similar workload this week, making him a high-end RB2 who probably needs to find the end zone to justify starting him.
