Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones (hamstring) returned to practice on Monday.
Jones has been dealing with a hamstring injury over the last week, but there has been very little concern about his health from most of the Packers' staff. Already back at practice, Jones still has weeks to recover and work with the team's trainers before the NFL season officially kicks off. With the offseason departure of Jamaal Williams, Jones could be in for a career-year in the receiving game.
One of the most dynamic talents in the league at the running back position, Jones is projected to finish the season as the RB9 in fantasy football. Our models have him slated for 271.5 carries for 1,258.1 yards and 11.9 touchdowns, as well as 50.1 receptions for another 387.8 yards and 3 receiving touchdowns.
