According to Ian Rapoport on Twitter, Green Bay Packers star running back Aaron Jones will test out his calf prior to the game, at which time a determination on his status for Thursday Night Football will be made.
The thought was that Jones was all but ruled out, but this report suggests otherwise, with Rapoport specifically stating that the Packers 'are hopeful'. This is something for fantasy managers to react to immediately, as Tyler Ervin's potential upside would be severely capped if Jones returned to a limited role. Obviously, if he feels good enough for a large workload, Ervin will be reduced to bit duty. Those with Jones on their benches may also want to pay careful attention to the inactive report later tonight. This is a fluid situation and is one to keep an eye on.
