Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones handled 13 carries for 73 yards and a score in his team's 42-21 victory over the Atlanta Falcons in Week 14. He added 11 yards on 2-of-2 receiving. The former Green Bay Packer bounced back again from a down week, this time with his best efficiency since way back in Week 7 (5.62 YPC). It was Jones' third touchdown over the last three weeks. Additionally, it was his first time in four games without a fumble -- an encouraging outcome for the 29-year-old. While his yardage totals haven't been outrageous, the former fifth-round pick has been a reliable RB2 in 2024. Jones gets a rematch with the Chicago Bears next Monday, who he just totaled 129 yards and a TD against back in Week 12.
Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones is a solid play in Week 14 in his outing against the Atlanta Falcons at home. Jones is coming off his least productive day on the season in last Sunday's contest against the Arizona Cardinals. Still, he salvaged his day somewhat with a receiving touchdown. It's been a bit of a roller-coaster year for the 30-year-old, but his good weeks have undoubtedly outweighed his bad ones. Atlanta's defense has been one of the stingier units this season against RBs regarding fantasy points per outing (20.7[ninth-fewest]). However, they've allowed the sixteenth-most rushing yards per game (121.3) and the fourteenth-most yards per carry (4.4) to their opponents. The Falcons also allow quite a few receptions to running backs (fourth-most). Fire up the eighth-year veteran as RotoBaller's PPR RB14 in Week 14.
Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones rushed five times for 22 yards in Sunday's 23-22 win over the Arizona Cardinals -- adding another six yards and a touchdown on 3-of-4 receiving. He'd also fumble twice, losing one of them. It wasn't the 29-year-old's most memorable performance, as he easily set new lows in rushing and receiving while matching his fewest touch count of the season. Jones also fumbled on the first play of each of the Vikings' first two possessions -- his third straight game with a fumble. However, he'd somewhat save his day with a late five-yard touchdown grab that ultimately sealed the victory for his squad. The eighth-year back will get a chance to redeem himself next Sunday when he lines up against the visiting Atlanta Falcons.
Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones has a middle-of-the-road matchup on tap this weekend when he lines up against the Arizona Cardinals. The eighth-year veteran rebounded nicely in last week's thrilling victory over the Chicago Bears after a sub-par effort in which he put up his lowest fantasy output of 2024. The Cards' defense has been a chore for their opposition recently. However, they're vulnerable to running backs -; especially ones that operate effectively through the air, allowing 53 receptions to the position (ninth-most). While Arizona has been staunch of late, Jones still garners some appeal due to his involvement in the passing game. Additionally, Minnesota's offense has played well in difficult matchups on back-to-back weeks (Chicago, Tennessee). The 29-year-old is RotoBaller's PPR RB18 for this week's slate of action.
Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones rushed 22 times for 106 yards and a touchdown in his team's 30-27 overtime win over the Chicago Bears. He added 23 yards on 3-of-4 receiving and coughed up a fumble. The 29-year-old matched his highest carry count of 2024 and set a new season-high with his rushing total. It was an excellent bounce-back effort from Jones, who was coming off his lowest fantasy output of the season. He's scored just four touchdowns this season, but the touches and yardage total have been there -- so he may be due for some positive regression in the TD department over the coming few weeks. The former Green Bay Packer will get another decent matchup next Sunday when Minnesota squares off against the Arizona Cardinals at home.
