At least 5 times a game so far this season, I've turned to whoever I'm watching it with and said, "I'm so happy that Aaron Jones is a Viking." He's got the juice, falls forward on every run, gets the most out of what's there. Such a breath of fresh air after last season and a joy to watch. No wonder everyone everywhere he's ever played talks about him the way they do.
It’s wild how much Jones seems to have left compared to Dalvin, who was in the same draft class. Usage matters, I guess. But Jones has also missed time with injuries over the years, meaning, oddly, perhaps more tread remains on his tires.
When I heard the news that the Vikings signed Jones, I asked my son, who follows NFL football, Is Jones all washed up? How could the Packers let him go? Amazing, and then he scored the TD against the Giants by beating New York's edge defense. That proved it to me, he's still got it.

I read his comments to the Green Bay faithful. Incredibly classy.
