Packers: 5 players who likely suited up final time for Green Bay
1. Aaron Jones
Aaron Jones had a great run for the Green Bay Packers and proved to be one of the most dynamic running backs in franchise history. It’s a bummer he went out the way he did against the Buccaneers, fumbling twice and getting knocked out of the game with a chest injury after the second fumble.
The Packers were always conservative with how often they used Jones. Perhaps, they have concerns about his longevity considering the way his first two years in the NFL ended due to injury. Jones also reportedly turned down an offer by the Packers that would’ve made him a top five paid running back. It won’t get any better than that from Green Bay.
The Packers planned for this in the draft, by selecting A.J. Dillon out of Boston College in the second round. Dillon saw limited playing time in his rookie year, but flashed the potential to be a full-time running back in 2021. That will almost assuredly be their plan.
