I’ve said that the only way for the Packers to retain Aaron Jones is if he took a pay cut.
Jones was scheduled to have a $20 million cap hit in 2023 and now that number has been reduced to $8.2 million. The reworked contract includes an $8.52 million signing bonus for this season.
This means that the most important Aaron will be coming back to the Packers next season. Let’s face it. Jones has been the heartbeat of Green Bay’s offense. He is the most versatile weapon on the team and he’s always been an impeccable teammate.
