Minnesota Vikings RB Aaron Jones rushed for 70 yards on 16 carries against the Chicago Bears in Week 11. He also caught three passes for 11 yards during the game.
Fantasy Spin: Jones received at least 10 carries for the first time this season and was able to have one of his better games of the season. He should see a good amount of touches again next week and can be a No. 2 running back or flex option in fantasy leagues.
From TheHuddle
Running back Aaron Jones Sr. (shoulder/toe) of the Minnesota Vikings does not appear on the Week 11 injury report and should be considered an RB2 option when his team plays host to NFC North rival Chicago on Sunday. Since the veteran returned from a hamstring injury that required a stint on injured reserve, he has clearly been the favored option over backfield mate Jordan Mason. Jones played more than 70% of the team's offense snaps against Baltimore in Week 10, and he's shown he can help managers even when the offense is struggling. Despite a sloppy overall game last week, Jones still managed 47 rushing yards and a touchdown on nine carries, and three catches for 22 yards. Jones already has a steady role in a decent offense, but there is some added potential this week against a Bears defense that has been middling against fantasy running backs.
From RotoBaller
Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones Sr. (shoulder, toe) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Chicago Bears. Jones played through the same issues during last week's contest. He rushed nine times for 47 yards and scored a touchdown in the loss to the Baltimore Ravens. It doesn't appear the AC joint sprain is impacting his performance on the field. He was limited in practice this week until getting in a full session on Friday. Fantasy managers should consider Jones as a low-end RB2 for this upcoming Week 11 contest.
From RotoBaller
Minnesota Vikings RB Aaron Jones (shoulder, toe) practiced in full on Friday, Nov. 14, and no longer appears on the injury report for Week 11 against the Chicago Bears.
Fantasy Spin: Aaron Jones has shown to be a spark in the Vikings' offense with his dual-threat ability. His pass-catching makes a difference, and he is worth plugging into your lineup as RB2 or a flex option.
From TheHuddle
Minnesota Vikings DE Jonathan Greenard (shoulder) did not practice all week and has been ruled out for Week 11 against the Chicago Bears. C Ryan Kelly (concussion) was limited in practice all week and has been ruled out. DL Jonathan Allen (rest), DL Javon Hargrave (rest), and S Harrison Smith (rest) were limited in practice on Friday, Nov. 14, and no longer appear on the injury report. OT Christian Darrisaw (knee), G Will Fries (calf), S Theo Jackson (concussion), RB Aaron Jones (shoulder, toe), QB J.J. McCarthy (hand), S Josh Metellus (foot), TE Josh Oliver (foot), OT Justin Skule (shoulder), and LB Andrew Van Ginkel (neck) practiced in full and no longer appear on the injury report.
From TheHuddle
Minnesota Vikings RB Aaron Jones (shoulder, toe) was limited during practice Thursday, Nov. 13.
Fantasy Spin: Jones was not on the injury report last week because of the injuries but was able to play, so fantasy players should expect him to be active for Week 13. He should see a majority of the snaps at running back against the Chicago Bears and can be a No. 2 running back or flex option in leagues.
From TheHuddle
Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones Sr. (shoulder, toe) was listed as a limited practice participant for the second straight day on Thursday due to shoulder and toe injuries. The veteran back played through the ailments in Week 10, so he's likely on track to suit up in Week 11 against the Chicago Bears. Across five games played this season, Jones Sr. has recorded 287 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns on 46 total touches. His workload upside is limited in Minnesota while he shares a backfield with Jordan Mason, but Jones Sr. is currently averaging 6.2 yards per touch, which would be a career-high if sustained over a full season. He also saw a season-high six targets in Week 10. As long as he's active, Jones Sr. profiles as a solid fantasy RB2 in Week 11 against Chicago.
From RotoBaller
Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones Sr. (shoulder, toe) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice. Jones is a bit banged up right now, but that didn't stop him from suiting up this past weekend. Jones rushed the ball nine times for 47 yards and scored a touchdown in the loss to the Baltimore Ravens. He also added three receptions for 22 yards through the air as the AC joint sprain in his shoulder didn't appear to be an issue. The fact Jones was limited on Wednesday in practice could be for rest purposes. If he misses time, Jordan Mason would see an increased workload during the Week 11 matchup against the Chicago Bears. Fantasy managers will need to check back on Thursday for another update.
From RotoBaller
Minnesota Vikings LB Andrew Van Ginkel (neck) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Nov. 12. OG Will Fries (calf), LB Jonathan Greenard (shoulder), RB Aaron Jones (shoulder, toe), C Ryan Kelly (concussion), QB J.J. McCarthy (hand), S Josh Metellus (foot), TE Josh Oliver (foot), OT Justin Skule (shoulder) and S Harrison Smith (rest) were limited, while OT Christian Darrisaw (knee) and S Theo Jackson (concussion) were full participants.
From TheHuddle
Minnesota Vikings RB Aaron Jones (shoulder, toe) was listed as a limited participant for practice Wednesday, Nov. 12.
Fantasy Spin: Jones logged 46 of the 65 offensive snaps (71 percent) in Week 10 against the Baltimore Ravens, posting nine carries for 47 yards and a touchdown, while totaling 12 total touches. Jordan Mason was limited to 16 snaps (25 percent). It was a positive sign that Jones is healthy, and the top back on the depth chart again. Still, he should be considered more of an RB3 or flex fantasy option until those total carries get into the teens, at the very least.
From TheHuddle
Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones Sr. has been limited to just five games played this season due to a hamstring injury that sidelined him from Week 3 to Week 7. However, the 30-year-old has been productive since returning to the lineup. Over his last two games, Jones Sr. has recorded 167 yards from scrimmage and a touchdown on 23 total touches. Perhaps most importantly, Jones Sr. appears to be re-emerging as Minnesota's lead back. In Week 10, Jones Sr. played 71% of the Vikings' offensive snaps, compared to just 25% for fellow running back Jordan Mason. Jones Sr. also saw a season-high six targets in Week 10. Heading into a favorable Week 11 matchup against the Chicago Bears, Jones Sr. profiles as a solid fantasy RB2.

From FantasyLife
Minnesota Vikings RB Aaron Jones rushed for 47 yards and one touchdown on nine carries against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 10. He also caught three passes for 22 yards during the game.
Fantasy Spin: Jones was dealing with injuries leading up to the game but received most of the carries in the running game and was able to reach the end zone. He will probably see a few more carries next week and can be at least a flex option in fantasy leagues.
From TheHuddle
Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones Sr.(shoulder, toe) is officially active for Sunday's Week 10 contest against the Baltimore Ravens. He had been listed as questionable after logging a limited practice on Friday. Jones exited last week's game with a shoulder injury, but it wasn't too serious, and now he'll return to action just seven days later. The 30-year-old should lead the Vikings' backfield on Sunday, looking to build off his average of 8.7 yards per carry from Week 9. He remains a low-end RB2 in fantasy football.
From RotoBaller
Minnesota Vikings RB Aaron Jones (shoulder) is active for Week 10's game versus the Baltimore Ravens.
Fantasy Spin: Jones had been listed as questionable on the injury report after participating on a limited basis in two of Minnesota's three practice sessions during the week. He should see the bulk of the carries for the Vikings this afternoon and can be deployed as an RB2 or flex option in fantasy league lineups.
From TheHuddle
Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones Sr. (shoulder) is expected to play in Week 10 against the Baltimore Ravens, according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN. Jones was limited in practice on Thursday and Friday after sitting out Wednesday, but he appears on track to play Sunday. The 30-year-old returned in Week 9 after missing four games due to a hamstring injury and looked good against Detroit, totaling 98 yards from scrimmage on 11 touches. Jones was playing ahead of Jordan Mason in his first game back, and should likely maintain the slight upper hand on Sunday against Baltimore. Mason will still be involved a good amount on early downs, but Jones has flex appeal in PPR leagues. He is ranked as RotoBaller's RB28 for Week 10.
From RotoBaller
Minnesota Vikings RB Aaron Jones (shoulder) is expected to play in Week 10's game against the Baltimore Ravens, according to multiple sources.
Fantasy Spin: Jones had been listed as questionable on the injury report after participating in two out of Minnesota's three practice sessions during the week. Assuming that Jones is active, he should see the bulk of the carries for the Vikings this week and can be viewed as an RB2 or flex option in fantasy leagues.
From TheHuddle
Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones Sr. (shoulder, toe) faces a strong matchup in Week 10 against Baltimore, but comes into the game with a questionable designation, so managers will have to check on his availability before setting their lineups on Sunday. The veteran gained 98 yards on only 11 touches against Detroit last week and was playing ahead of backfield mate Jordan Mason, but left the game due to the aforementioned shoulder injury and did not return. He'll take on a Baltimore defense that ranks 26th against half-PPR running backs, but one that has looked improved during its past three games. Baltimore's past three opponents averaged just 13 points, and the Ravens had a few extra days of rest after playing on Thursday in Week 9. With Mason still part of the picture, Jones won't have complete control of the Vikings' backfield even if he plays, but he can be considered a quality RB3/flex option against Baltimore if he's active on Sunday.
From RotoBaller
Minnesota Vikings RB Aaron Jones (shoulder, toe) was limited during practice Friday, Nov. 7, and is listed as questionable for Week 10.
Fantasy Spin: Jones was limited during the final two practices of the week and will likely be available for the Week 10 game as long as he does not suffer a setback. He is averaging just above 34 yards per game in his four games but did finish with 78 rushing yards in his last game. He can be a No. 2 running back or flex option if he plays.
