Aaron Jones‘ lack of opportunities quickly became one of many frustrating parts of the Green Bay Packers offense last year. Jones continued to make big plays when he was on the field — as his league-best 5.5 yards per carry backs up — yet Mike McCarthy continued to limit his opportunities on the field.
Based on talent alone, Jones proved he is the best running back on the team. But is it possible McCarthy was concerned about his durability?
In his rookie season, Jones missed two games with an MCL sprain in Weeks 11 and 12.
