Aaron Jones

MINRB • #33

Aaron Jones rushed 13 times for 73 yards and a touchdown in the Vikings’ Week 14 win over the Falcons, adding two receptions for 11 yards.

Looking to bounce back from a Week 13 that saw him put the ball on the ground twice, Jones still saw his second fewest carries since the Vikings’ Week 6 bye, but he scored his sixth total touchdown and out-carried Cam Akers 13-5. Akers was getting the ball deep into closeout mode in a multi-score contest. Jones looked “back.” The Vikings simply destroyed the Falcons through the air. The Vikes will probably look to spell veteran Jones down the stretch as they get ready for the postseason, but he’s a safe RB2 against the Bears’ vulnerable run defense for Week 15.
