The Green Bay Packers ran into a wall in the form of the San Francisco 49ers last Saturday, but running back Aaron Jones still managed to make his mark. In fact, his performance in that NFC divisional-round matchup was the first of its kind versus the Niners in over two years, according to StatMuse.
“First player to rush for 100 yards against the 49ers since Week 8 in 2021.”
Green Bay Packers Star Aaron Jones Lit Up The 49ers’ Defense Against The Run
Jones was nearly everything for the Green Bay Packers’ ground attack against the 49ers. He led Green Bay with 108 rushing yards on 18 carries. He also scored on a two-point conversion that stretched the Packers’ lead to seven points in the third quarter. Although the Packers ultimately lost to the Niners to the tune of a 24-21 score, it was certainly not because of a lack of effort from the veteran running back, who just concluded his seventh season in the NFL — all with the Green Bay Packers.
Jones’s production in the 49ers game can look more impressive when considering the fact that San Francisco had one of the stoutest run defenses in the NFL back in the regular season. The 49ers entered the NFL playoffs ranked third in the league overall with just 92.3 rushing yards surrendered per game, though, teams didn’t really run the ball much versus San Francisco.
