Aaron Jones Sr. Week 17 Outlook - Packers at Vikings

By Mick Ciallela (Fantrax), Thu, Dec 26th 2024, 8:48am EST

Aaron Jones Sr. enters Week 17 as the overall RB15 in Half-PPR scoring this season. That feels like a more realistic expectation for Jones Sr. from a fantasy perspective than to treat the former Packer as an RB1 in 10 and 12-team leagues. Jones Sr. has only finished as a top-12 weekly fantasy back four times in 15 games, never finishing inside the top six in a given week. He has scored double-digit fantasy points 11 times to his credit, giving him a reasonably high weekly floor. However, he is best suited as an RB2, which is the case in Week 17. Minnesota faces a Green Bay defense that has given up the fourth-fewest rushing yards to opposing running backs over the past four weeks.
