Who Should I Start? Aaron Jones or James Robinson

Wednesday, November 29, 3:15 PM

Green Bay Packers running backs Aaron Jones (knee) and AJ Dillon (groin) were both missing from the first practice of the week on Wednesday. Jones suffered a sprained MCL in Week 11 and missed the Thanksgiving Day upset over the Detroit Lions last Thursday as a result. Jones' injury isn't all that serious, but there's a chance he could miss his second straight game in Week 13 against the Kansas City Chiefs. The 28-year-old will need to practice at some point later this week to have a shot at returning. Dillon, meanwhile, had a questionable tag last week due to his groin injury, but he played and had 17 touches for 81 scrimmage yards as Green Bay's lead back against Detroit. All signs are pointing toward Dillon leading the Packers' backfield again this weekend as long as he returns to practice on Thursday or Friday.

The Green Bay Packers are signing James Robinson to the active roster ahead of the Week 12 game against the Detroit Lions. Aaron Jones (knee) is presumably doubtful to play and rookie Emanuel Wilson (shoulder) has been placed on Injured Reserve. Robinson hit the league by storm as an undrafted free agent in 2020, posting over 1,400 yards from scrimmage and 10 total touchdowns. He has struggled to find his footing after his fantastic rookie season. This year, he has spent time with the New England Patriots and New York Giants as a member of the practice squad. If he logs a touch behind AJ Dillon on Thursday, it will be his first touch since last season with the New York Jets. For now, he remains off the fantasy radar.
