Three rounds apart in the 2017 NFL Draft, the Green Bay Packers drafted a pair of players who share a last name. Second-round safety Josh Jones and fifth-round running back Aaron Jones aren’t related — after all, Jones is an awfully common name — but the two are both in Green Bay this week for the start of OTAs and both are excited to kick off their NFL careers.
Josh has been on the Packers’ radar for a long time, as you’ll learn in today’s cheese curds. Meanwhile, Aaron had a difficult time leaving another Jones, his twin brother Alvin who is still at UTEP playing college football.
