First-ever Aaron Jones camp rallies youth

Instead of relaxing his last days in El Paso, former UTEP running back Aaron Jones decided to do something that was personally worthwhile.

Jones will be heading back to Green Bay on July 25, for training camp. In his last days in the Sun City, Jones held the first-ever Aaron Jones Youth Skills Camp, which was a free, two-day football camp for local children at the Sun Bowl.
