The Green Bay Packers missed Aaron Jones during their forgettable 17-13 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders on Monday Night Football. The offense put up their fewest points of the season and failed to move the ball when it mattered most.
Love also struggled, he threw three interceptions and zero touchdowns on Monday Night. It was his first three interception game of his career. It is clear that Jones is an extremely important piece to this offense. LaFleur commented on Jones going forward.
Green Bay Packers Head Coach Comments On Aaron Jones Availability Going Forward
Per USA Today’s Brian Wood:
Matt LaFleur on possibility of Aaron Jones returning from his hamstring vs. Denver:
“We’ll see. I sure as hell hope so. (We have) 12 games in front of us, and we’re going to need him for the duration of those,” LaFleur said.
Jones played three quarters in the season opener in Chicago and 20 snaps last Thursday night against the Lions. The Packers are five games into the 2023 season and Jones has all of 17 touches.
A.J. Dillon carried 20 times for a season-high 76 yards against the Raiders, but the Packers desperately need Jones’ dual-threat playmaking ability as a slashing big-play runner and dynamic receiver in space.
With 12 more days to recover, Jones should finally return as something close to a full-time player when the Packers face the Broncos on Sunday, Sept. 22.
