Aaron Jones now has a pocket inside his jersey to safely keep pops with him on game day.

A Mug Shot and unreliable pass blocker? Undersized? Fifth round, Really?
Also, X4 never forgets.
I love it! Thanks for the memories Packerhawk!

So since it's Schefter reporting it, that must mean season-ending...

I'd like Joe Rogan's opinion on this before I react.
He will likely have a 3 week window to heal; the next 2 games and the bye week.
Ian Rap reporting the same info.
That is pretty near a month.

Packer. People.
Fucking love that guy. Cool as shit.
Whoever is chopping onions in here can go to hell.
Hey @NBA, put Aaron Jones in the three-point contest!

Damn, with him and Tae that's a pretty good start at an NFL basketball team.
I played pick-up hoops 3 x a week in my 20âs âĶguy starting his jump shot down at his hips like that would get a lot of rejection. ð

Er, where should he start it from when he is picking up the ball from HIP HEIGHT???
Kiel probably had taller ball carts.
Or he was shorter and had to reach up, not down.
Never thought of that.
@ammo posted:Kiel probably had taller ball carts.
He thinks he has taller âballsâ.
It's painful to watch him try to dribble a basketball between his legs.

He should have the ball in the earhole form that Rodgers had out of college.
Packer People...

The internet is forever.
Such a **** move. Guy gave an opinion on a 5th round pick and was wrong. Your bitch ass wants to bring it up because? To try and keep him from filling this website with opinions? That would be interesting to read.
How about you do us a favor fuck off?

Overreact much? Câmon man. We all get called out on shit we say. Is that such a big deal?
You should have been here when I was pimping Jamal Reynoldsâsð
I read today that if Jones rushes for 1000 yards and scored 10 rushing TDs this season, it will move him into 3rd place in team history in both categories.
Of course, I can't find that link, but I did verify at Pro Football Reference.
I read that as well. Already a Packers legend.
Here's a link from today at packers.com:
Thanks, DD!
We've chatted a bit about the concept of having 2 RBs on the field together in 2022 and this play here shows how the Packers have already used that to their advantage in the red zone.
In the play shown below, Aaron Jones lines up out wide and the defense matches by covering him with a DB.
By having 2 backs on the field - the Packers are forcing the defense's hand. The defense still needs to honor the run with Dillon set up in the backfield - and that ties up the ILBs. Meanwhile, they motion Jones across the formation knowing full well there's no fookin way that DB can sift thru everyone and get over in time to make a play.
Beautiful play design. Winning by using the defenses' "rules" against them
"Another place where that horizontal stretch can work is in the red zone and thatâs where the Green Bay Packers have thrived, especially in the low red zone within 10 yards of the goal line. Thatâs often been Davante Adams territory but without him on the roster, the Packers can still find ways to use some of the same principles that made that such a dangerous area for the offense.
Against the Detroit Lions in Week 2, the Packers had the ball on the Lionsâ 5-yard line. With Aaron Rodgers in shotgun and A.J. Dillon set to his left, Green Bay came out with Jones and Adams stacked to the right of the formation. Jones ran jet motion before the snap and received the tap pass from Rodgers. With solid blocks from the tight end and receiver on the left side, Dillon was able to act as a lead blocker to clear a path for Jones into the end zone. "

AND why did we not see anything like this last Sunday. Run it till they stop it. Good luck.
Interesting stat on Jones this season. He was 2nd among RBs in "average yards per carry" , but only 15th in rushing attempts. I know they want to prolong his career, and he's not the biggest RB, but .....
Did they also compare RB's involvement in the passing game? Maybe he's more involved than the running stats would suggest.
I thought about that after posting and it is even more damning. Jones was 13th in touches ....one spot behind Jamaal Williams
His lack of use may be damning, but I also recall that Jones by the end of the year has always battled with injuries that aren't major, but stuff that could become major. In the past, he was always "saved" a bit for the playoffs, but this year I recall him having some knee issue that limited him to a degree as well. With his style of running and size and to keep him for an entire year, it wouldn't surprise me if they put him on a "run count."
