Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones is expected to return to action tonight against the Lions.
Thursday Night Football will see the return of Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones, according to Tom Pelissero via Twitter. Jones missed the last two games with a hamstring injury.
Jones is expected to be on a snap count as the Packers face the Detroit Lions.
The news is welcome for Aaron Jones owners in fantasy who have been hampered by his absence and the volatility of the running back position in the season’s early weeks. Unfortunately for owners of AJ Dillon, Dillon’s production will revert to that of a backup or handcuff role. Emanuel Wilson returns to irrelevance and Patrick Taylor suffers a similar fate, he moves back to the Packers’ practice squad.
