Coming into the season, one of the major focuses in Green Bay was how the Packers were going to use running backs Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon, who were presumed to be the team’s top offensive skill players after the Davante Adams trade. Unfortunately, Jones clearly looked like the better back in 2022, despite their split usage.
Over the last two weeks, the Packers have only used their “Pony” package, which features both Jones and Dillon on the field at the same time, for a total of seven offensive snaps. Instead, they are electing to play a backfield of either Jones or Dillon, not both.
