The Green Bay Packers (2-2) and the Las Vegas Raiders (1-3) will face off on Monday Night Football. The Packers have had two impressive wins and two bad losses. Injuries have certainly played a role early on this season. David Bakhtiari, Aaron Jones, Jaire Alexander, Elgton Jenkins, and Christian Watson have all missed a sizable portion of the first four weeks.
Aaron Jones is certainly one of the most important pieces of the Packers’ offense. At times, the offense flows directly through Jones with ample success. Aaron Jones returned from his hamstring injury this past week vs. the Detroit Lions. However, it was clear that he was on a pitch count. He finished with just five rushing attempts. Today Jones released a statement on his health going forward.
Green Bay Packers Running Back Aaron Jones Expects To Be 100% Back For Matchup Vs. The Las Vegas Raiders
Aaron Jones and Christian Watson returned to the field on Thursday for the Green Bay Packers. Despite this, the team was still very cautious with both players, as they were on pitch counts.
However, Jones expects to be “100% healthy” by the time Monday Night Football kicks off against the Las Vegas Raiders:
“I feel like I’ll be able to go out there against Vegas on Monday night and be 100%,” Jones told reporters after the game.
In 2022, the Packers were 5-1 when Aaron Rodgers handed the ball to Jones 14 or more times. (The one loss was at Buffalo on Sunday Night Football).
Over the years, the Packers have been 34-4 overall when Jones gets 15 or more touches. He has been extremely important to the Packers’ offense.
