GREEN BAY, Wis. – To say Aaron Jones carries most of the experience in the Green Bay Packers’ backfield would be an understatement.
AJ Dillon: 46 carries in one season.
Dexter Williams: 7 carries in two seasons.
Kylin Hill: Rookie.
Patrick Taylor: Didn’t play as a rookie.
That’s 53 career carries from that quartet.
Jones had 53 carries in November and 71 in December. In his four NFL seasons, Jones has scored 43 touchdowns – not far off Dillon’s carry count.
So, not only will Jones have a big role on the field as the Packers’ versatile three-down back, but the 26-year-old is the leader and role model for a young group of backups.
