Packers hold out RB Aaron Jones vs. Raiders but hopeful he will play vs. Broncos

Running back Aaron Jones felt something in his recovering hamstring during Saturday’s practice, so the Green Bay Packers took the cautious route and held him out of Monday night’s loss to the Las Vegas Raiders in hopes of having him close to 100 percent for the final 12 games of the 2023 season.

Asked Tuesday if Jones would be available coming out of the bye week against the Denver Broncos, coach Matt LaFleur said he’ll have to wait and see.

“I sure as hell hope so,” LaFleur said.

The Packers were planning on having Jones in a bigger role against the Raiders but the setback on Saturday ruined the plans.
