Aaron Jones

Jones will continue to play through the pain in his age-31 season. Over the last four weeks, Jones' best showing earned him the overall RB26 spot in half-PPR scoring. The Vikings' game against the Cowboys profiles as a fantasy-friendly one, though, warranting low-end RB2 treatment for Jones.

Jones practiced last week with the shoulder issue and was cleared from the injury report prior to running for 76 yards against the Commanders in Week 14. The 31-year-old will likely continue to nurse the injury throughout the final games of the season, meaning this limited listing has little cause for concern. Expect Jones to play in Week 15 against the Cowboys, barring setbacks.

Jones (shoulder) was limited at practice Wednesday, Emily Leiker of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports.

Jones averaged a solid 5.4 YPC in this one, as the Vikings faced little resistance on the ground en route to a 31-0 shutout victory. Jones was instrumental in two of the Vikings' four touchdown drives on the day, with his best drive coming in the fourth quarter. On that drive, Jones took three carries for 30 yards to help position the offense for an eventual two-yard touchdown pass to T.J. Hockenson to put the game well out of reach. Jones' 76 rushing yards marked his second-highest total of season. He's surpassed 50 yards on the ground just three times in nine games and has found the end zone just twice this season. Jones will be hard to trust as anything more than a RB3 play in Week 15 against the Cowboys.

Chandler will not come off injured reserve, so the Vikings will once again go with a Jordan Mason-Aaron Jones backfield for the tilt against the Commanders. Chandler likely wouldn't have a big role/won't have one whenever he is activated, anyways.
