Packers face injury problems at running back, again

Injuries were a problem for the Green Bay Packers at running back throughout the 2017 season. Early on this year, the same is true again. And it could leave them thin at the position in the regular season opener.

Second-year Aaron Jones made his preseason debut on Friday night after a hamstring injury kept him out of the opening two games. The good news is he’s healthy, the bad news is that he won’t be available for the opening two regular season contests due to suspension.

Jamaal Williams, who is the frontrunner (excuse the pun) to start at running back this season, has been dealing with an ankle injury.
