Aaron Jones, AJ Dillon Both Limited Again Thursday
Aaron Jones, AJ Dillon Both Limited Again Thursday
11 months ago
Green Bay Packers running backs Aaron Jones (knee, finger), AJ Dillon (thumb) and rookie Emanuel Wilson (shoulder) were all limited in Thursday's practice for the second straight day this week. Jones ended a three-game absence by returning in the Week 15 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in a game he had 13 carries for 53 yards and four catches for 16 yards. Dillon, on the other hand, missed last week's game due to a broken thumb he suffered in Week 14. Both Jones and Dillon could be available this weekend versus the Carolina Panthers, which would make both RBs more of touchdown-dependent, low-upside RB3/flex options against a Panthers defense that has been better against RBs of late. Wilson, a 24-year-old rookie remains on Injured Reserve but could be activated by Saturday and serve as RB depth behind Jones and Dillon in Week 16.
