If you ask former Auburn football star and current Detroit Lions running back Kerryon Johnson, he believes that the contract Aaron Jones was just handed by the Green Bay Packers was not big enough.

No one did, and Johnson even calls his own opinion “unnecessary”, but in this writer’s opinion, knowing what NFL players think of their peers’ contracts is a pretty valuable window into the thinking that said NFL-ers will take into future negotiations.

Johnson posted his Twitter opinion on Sunday after it was announced that the Packers had extended their star rusher to a long-term contract.
