The Green Bay Packers are planning to keep running back Aaron Jones in 2023.
General manager Brian Gutekunst didn’t hesitate or flinch when asked if Jones – who has a ballooning salary cap hit next season – will be back for another season in Green Bay.
“Certainly, we expect to have him back,” Gutekunst said Friday.
Jones, a fifth-round pick in 2017, rushed for a career-high 1,121 yards in 2022. He averaged 5.3 yards per carry, marking the fourth time in six seasons that he’s averaged at least 5.
