Aaron Jones Sr. Limited on Wednesday

Wednesday, November 12, 9:05 PM

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.

Jaylen Warren News

Jaylen Warren "Will Get More Touches"

Tuesday, November 11, 12:31 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin said on Tuesday that running back Jaylen Warren "will get more touches" going forward, according to Brooke Pryor of ESPN. Tomlin also added that he's comfortable with both Warren and Kenneth Gainwell on third downs, but Warren "has to get a break at some point." Warren played 46% of the offensive snaps, his second-lowest total of the season, in Sunday night's 25-10 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, while Gainwell played 52% of the snaps. The 27-year-old Warren finished with 14 rushing attempts for 70 yards and added two catches for 21 yards. Despite the limited number of snaps, Warren had his second-highest rushing total of the season. Gainwell didn't even have a carry while catching just two passes for four yards. Touchdowns have been hard to come by for Warren (he has just three), but he should maintain a safe floor as a volume-based RB2.
