Aaron Jones

Jones took 12 carries for 34 yards while catching all three of his targets for 31 yards in Sunday's 34-26 win over the Cowboys.

As has been the case for much of the season, Jones drew the start for the Vikings but rotated drives with fellow veteran Jordan Mason, with both backs failing to find much room on the ground. Mason gained just 29 yards on 10 carries and was not targeted in the pass game, with both backs averaging fewer than 30 yards per carry against the retooled Dallas defensive front. The two could find more room to run against the worse run defense in the league in Week 16 when the Vikings face off against the Giants.

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.
