The Packers’ young players are the headline, but as far as their playoff push is concerned, it’s their oldest offensive player that might be the biggest story.

After spending most of the year in and out of the lineup with an assortment of injuries, Aaron Jones has returned to the field at full strength, putting up his biggest performances of the season when it’s mattered most.

Jones rushed for 358 yards on 63 carries over the Packers’ final three games, more than half of his total rushing output for the season. He hasn’t found the end zone, but he’s been explosive and consistent, a crucial factor with fellow back AJ Dillon also banged up.
