Aaron Jones Sr.'s Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones is set to square off against the Jacksonville Jaguars this Sunday in Week 10. The long-time Packer has been excellent during his first stint in Vikings Purple, piling up 810 yards from scrimmage through the team's first eight games. The only stat lacking is his touchdowns, as he has just three on the season. While Jacksonville has been solid against their opponents in the rushing department (4.4 YPC), they're tied for the second-most receptions allowed to the running back position (55). The 29-year-old has seen his yards per carry wane over the last two contests, so it might be tough sledding for him again. However, his work in the passing game should continue to keep his fantasy floor high. He ranks as RotoBaller's PPR RB11 ahead of Week 10's slate.

Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones rushed 21 times for 64 yards in the team's 21-13 victory over the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday Night Football. He added another 18 yards through the air on 4-of-4 receiving. Jones wasn't his usual efficient self in Week 9, rushing for just 3.0 yards per clip. It was an excellent matchup on paper, but he didn't come through against a porous Colts defense. Over the last two weeks, the 29-year-old's efficiency has dipped as opposed to his other outings. Still, his involvement in the passing game should continue to keep his fantasy floor high. The former Green Bay Packer will get a chance to rebound in Week 10 when the Vikings square off against the Jacksonville Jaguars at EverBank Stadium. Jacksonville has been stout against the run this season, having allowed just 4.2 yards per carry to their opponents heading into Week 9. However, they let up the most receptions to opposing running backs (51) and the third-most receiving yards out of the backfield (400).

Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones should be in store for a massive performance this weekend when his team squares off against the Indianapolis Colts at home in Week 9. Despite Jones scoring only three touchdowns on the year, he's the RB15 in PPR formats with just one outing under 9.8 fantasy points. This Sunday, he gets a smash matchup in a Colts defense that's let up the second-most rushing yards to opposing ground attacks (1,215) in the league. The former fifth-round pick should eat against a Swiss cheese Indianapolis front-seven and stands an excellent chance to add to his touchdown total. Additionally, with quarterback Joe Flacco in line to start for Indianapolis, this projects to be a higher-scoring affair than it might have been with second-year QB Anthony Richardson under center. The 29-year-old veteran is RotoBaller's PPR RB11 in Week 9's ranks.

Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones couldn't find much success on the ground during Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Rams. Jones rushed 19 times for 58 yards in what ended up being a loss for Minnesota. However, Jones was able to help his value with two receptions for an additional 37 yards through the air. It wasn't a stellar outing for Jones, but the 19 carries are the most for him since Week 4. Jones figures to bounce back on the ground with a favorable matchup against the Indianapolis Colts next week. He should be able to get back to his RB1 form in that one.

Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones (hamstring) was a full participant in practice on Wednesday and was removed from the injury report ahead of the Week 8 game against the Los Angeles Rams. Jones was limited in practice on Monday and Tuesday with a hamstring injury, but the team likely was being cautious with him on a short week. Jones ranks 12th among running backs in half-PPR fantasy points per game (14.9), and the Rams have allowed the ninth-most fantasy points per game to the position. That said, the veteran clocks in as a fringe RB1 in the Week 8 rankings, making him a virtual must-start in most leagues.
