Packers RB Aaron Jones, A.J. Dillon both go over 1,000 yards from scrimmage in 2021

The Green Bay Packers have the NFL’s MVP favorite at quarterback and an otherworldly talent at wide receiver, but the running back duo in Matt LaFleur’s offense is pretty good too.

After Sunday night’s win over the Minnesota Vikings, both Aaron Jones and A.J. Dillon now have over 1,000 total yards from scrimmage through 16 games.

The two became just the fourth pair of running backs in Packers history to both create 1,000 or more yards in a single season. And it’s the first time since 1980 when Eddie Lee Ivery and Gerry Ellis accomplished the feat.
