GREEN BAY, Wis. – Aaron Jones had it easy as a rookie, now that he looks back at his transition to the NFL. The Green Bay Packers running back was inactive for the 2017 regular-season opener, and when he did get on the field in Weeks 2 and 3, it was only on special teams.
He didn’t even touch the ball until Week 4.
Jones can barely imagine what rookie receivers Romeo Doubs and Christian Watson went through Sunday, when the coaches threw them into the season opener and expected them to produce right away.
