Packers' Aaron Jones emphasizing lower body strength en route to second season

-- There's no lead dog in the Green Bay Packers' backfield, but entering his second season, Aaron Jones is focused on doing all he can to win that job.

One of the steps he needs to take en route to receiving an abundance of snaps -- or, more than his competition -- is improving in pass protection. That's been an emphasis for him during the spring.

"I'm bigger all around," Jones told Packers.com. "That's something that's going to help me in pass protection and that's something I want to get better at. I'm stronger, so definitely when a defender who's bigger than me comes up I can hold my ground this year.
