Aaron Jones Back In Must-Start Territory In Week 10

Aaron Jones Back In Must-Start Territory In Week 10

one year ago

Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones will travel to Pittsburgh to take on the Steelers in Week 10. The 28-year-old finally looked to be in pre-injury form last week against the Rams, handling 24 touches for a combined 99 yards and a score. Jones has remained limited in practice this week, labeled with a hamstring injury, but this seems to be rep management for a veteran player more than anything else. Teammate AJ Dillon was a distant second in running back touches and is no real threat to Jones' workload moving forward. This week's matchup against the Steelers is one to capitalize on. Pittsburgh allows the seventh-most fantasy points per game to running backs and gives up an average of 112.6 rushing yards per game. The veteran back was considered a fringe RB1 in August when drafts were going on and should be right back in that top-15 territory moving forward. Jones is a must-start this week.
