Check out the latest news and notes around the NFL.
Aaron Jones feels like he ‘could play eight more years’
Passing 30 years of age seems to be a dreaded time for most runningbacks, but not for Vikings RB Aaron Jones. “I feel like every year, I’m getting better and better, and last year I felt like I was just about to start entering my prime,” said Jones.
Fantasy Impact
If Jones were to enter his prime this year, it would be a great year to do it. As the RB1 in a talented Minnesota offense, expect the eighth-year ball carrier to post RB2-worthy fantasy numbers if he can stay on the field.

Blake Corum listed as starting kick returner
Blake Corum is listed as Los Angeles’ starting kick returner heading into the season.
Fantasy Impact
The Rams have listed the rookie as their starting kick returner on their official depth chart, which was an unforeseen development. The ADP of Kyren Williams has been dropping a lot lately following the news that he is going to return punts for the team, but the fact that both of Los Angeles’ top-two backs are playing special teams may just be an indication that Sean McVay wants them to touch the ball as much as possible. Fantasy managers shouldn’t overreact to this news for the time being.

Travis Kelce ‘wouldn’t listen’ if Chiefs pitched lesser role
When asked if the Chiefs offense may be making adjustments due to Travis Kelce‘s age, the 34-year-old TE said he “probably wouldn’t listen to them if they did”. Kelce went on to describe how he feels more comfortable with his body now than ever before in his career.
Fantasy Impact
Kelce has posted over 90 receptions in each of the past six seasons and expect no change to the Chiefs’ offense in 2024. The nine-time Pro Bowler still remains a top fantasy option at the position due to his connection with QB Patrick Mahomes.
