Countdown to Camp: Aaron Jones, AJ Dillon pack all-around backfield punch

"Countdown to Camp" is a daily look at the Packers' roster, position by position, leading up to the start of training camp. The series continues with the running backs.

GREEN BAY – Perhaps the most asked question of the Packers' offseason was to whom the offense would turn to help replace Davante Adams' production after the All-Pro receiver was traded to Las Vegas in March.

Green Bay's one-two backfield punch had its hand up all spring, welcoming the responsibility that comes with being the next men up on the Packers' playmaking front.

In 2021, Jones and Dillon became just the fourth backfield duo in team history to each amass 1,000 total yards in the same season, and the first since Gerry Ellis and Eddie Lee Ivery in 1980.
