Could a Rookie Running Back Replace Jones or Dillon?

Before the Draft in 2020, the Green Bay Packers found themselves with a future decision to make at the Running Back position. They had two dynamic running backs in Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams. Both of them, however, were entering contract years and both would likely be valuable on the open market. They addressed this right away by drafting running back AJ Dillon in the 2nd round of the 2020 NFL Draft. Everyone knew that this would definitely spell the end for either Jones or Williams in Green Bay post-2020 season.

Sure enough, AJ Dillon ended up having a decent rookie season.
