The Miami Dolphins saw a potential top-end free agent target get pulled off the market on Sunday when news broke that the Green Bay Packers had re-signed running back Aaron Jones to a four-year, $48 million contract. The news was first reported by ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
Jones returning to Green Bay is a change from just a couple of weeks ago when reports indicated the Dolphins and Jones were mutually interested in the veteran rusher moving to South Florida. Miami is likely looking to upgrade their rushing attack for next season following a disappointing performance from 2020 free agent acquisition Jordan Howard.
