Aaron Jones, the running back for the Green Bay Packers, is expected to play against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday despite a knee injury, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. This will be Jones’ first game back since he damaged his MCL against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 11, if Schefter’s reporting is accurate. In addition, Jones has already missed three games this season because of a hamstring ailment that first occurred in Week 1 against the Chicago Bears and reappeared in Week 5.

In addition, the Packers made a few more roster changes on Sunday that provide an indication of their plans for the running back position. For the Packers’ game against the Buccaneers, the team raised running back Kenyan Drake and receiver Bo Melton from the practice squad and reinstated cornerback Eric Stokes (hamstring) off the injured list.

If Jones plays, there is no need for Green Bay to need a fourth rushing back in Drake, unless AJ Dillon (thumb) is not expected to participate. Dillon acknowledged earlier this week that he suffered a broken thumb in the closing seconds of the game against the New York Giants. Head coach Matt LaFleur said on Friday that Dillon was able to train with a lot of protection on his hand. In the NFL, offensive skill players are much less likely to have this luxury than offensive linemen or defenders.

THE LATEST VIDEO FROM SB NATION Dolphins: The Thanksgiving 1993 Cowboys game is worth revisiting

November 25, 1993 is the date. were at Texas Stadium for the Thanksgiving Day game between the Miami Dolphins, who were visiting from their hometown, and the Dallas Cowboys. Dallas leads the game by one point, but in the closing seconds, Miami is setting up for a field goal. Against the reigning Super Bowl Champions, the Dolphins might make a statement with a powerful kick. There are a lot of things to consider before we see what happens next. We must rewind in order to achieve it.

As of right now, it seems reasonable to assume that Dillon is probably out, Jones is probably in, Patrick Taylor will start as the game’s number-two back, and Drake will be the backup back. To put things in perspective, Drake and Taylor both played against the Giants last week. Drake did not play a single offensive snap, whereas Taylor participated in 32 of the 68 available offensive snaps.

The only significant question that remains is Jones’ level of involvement in the strategy. Jones, who has struggled with several ailments this season, is set to participate in his first game since November 19th, as we previously announced. He has only managed to log 66 carries and 19 receptions for the year because he has only seen 10 carries in two games in 2023. If Taylor ends up getting more snaps than any other running back on Sunday, don’t be shocked.
