On Sunday, Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones eclipsed 100 yards rushing, a notable accomplishment for a fifth-round draft choice. The Packers rarely spend high draft capital on tailbacks, but this year’s selection of three players at the position — including fourth-rounder Jamaal Williams and seventh-round pick Devante Mays — meant that the likelihood was good that at least one of them would have a nice day sooner or later.
As it turns out, Jones’ big day in Dallas made him the sixth Packers running back to have a 100-yard rushing day during his rookie season since 2000.
