Likely sprained MCL for Aaron Jones, will undergo further testing

Nov 14, 2021

Packers RB Aaron Jones is believed to have suffered a sprained MCL during Sunday’s win against the Seahawks.

Fantasy Impact:

Jones went down in the third quarter and had to be helped off the field. He will undergo and MRI to further evaluate the extent of the injury, but it looks like the Packers backfield, for the time being, belongs to AJ Dillon, who came in and scored two touchdowns and had 66 yards in Green Bay’s 17-0 win over the Seahawks to move back atop the NFC standings after Arizona’s loss to Carolina. The Packers have a huge game next week at Minnesota with a close to all but lock up the NFC North. Green Bay’s bye is in Week 13.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
