Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones suffered a "mild" MCL sprain in Week 10 and is expected to miss 1-2 weeks, reports ESPN's Adam Schefter.
That timeline means Jones will likely be able to avoid the three-week injured reserve and possibly even be back by Week 12. A.J. Dillon will take over as a workhorse back while Jones is out, with 2020 undrafted free agent Patrick Taylor possibly mixing in. The Packers will visit the Minnesota Vikings in Week 11 and then host an NFC showdown with the Los Angeles Rams in Week 12.
Dillon had 128 total yards and 2 touchdowns on 23 touches in Week 10 and he is currently leading all running backs this week with 25.8 FanDuel points. Taylor played 3-of-74 offensive snaps and rushed twice for 7 yards. Per Pro Football Focus, Dillons has earned the sixth-best rushing grade and Jones ranks 12th among all backs with double-digit carries this season.
