Aaron Jones' Jersey Has Pocket Added by Packers to Carry Father's Ashes

Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones said Friday the team's equipment manager has figured out a way he can safely have his father's ashes with him during games.

According to ESPN's Rob Demovsky, Jones said that Packers equipment manager Gordon "Red" Batty fashioned a pocket inside his jersey that can hold his father's ashes without the possibility of them falling out.

"He put a pocket right on the left side," Jones said. "So I can just drop it in there and not have to worry about it falling out. So I can play with it.
