Aaron Jones Has Tough Matchup In Opener
5 years agoGreen Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones has a tough matchup in the opening matchup against the Chicago Bears. Jones is likely the lead running back for the Packers, after previously splitting carries with Jamaal Williams. Jones was an effective last season once he was given more of the carries, and ended the season with 728 yards and eight touchdowns on the ground. The Chicago Bears were the most effective offense against running backs last season, only giving up an average of 12 points to the position. Jones is a viable starting option but is unlikely to finish at the top of the position in this matchup.
