Packers Set to Shine: Aaron Jones

It’s truly baffling that the Packers haven’t tapped into Aaron Jones’s full potential. For years, they’ve held back one of their most potent weapons, and it’s come at the cost of potential victories.

With Jordan Love at the helm and a group of untested receivers, Matt LaFleur needs to lean heavily on the well-established running game, and I don’t mean relying on AJ Dillon, who took a step backward in the 2022 season.

Jones remains one of the NFL’s most dynamic running backs. While he’s getting older and nearing the end of his contract, the Packers should waste no time in unleashing his full capabilities before they realize what they’ve missed. Jones has the ability to be a game-changer and the linchpin of the Packers’ offense. It’s high time they let him shine.
