Aaron Jones had 28 of the backs' 30 opportunities (93.3%, from 87.5%). Jones carried 25 times for 113 yards and a touchdown and caught 3 of 3 targets for 4 yards. Jordan Mason's Week 7 return from injured reserve is the date to plan around for moving away from Jones because this workload is just not sustainable.

Jones' career-high 28 touches unsustainable; Mason returns Week 7 to limit workload.

Aaron Jones had 28 of the backs' 30 opportunities (93.3%, up from 87.5%), carrying 25 times for 113 yards and a touchdown and catching 3 of 3 targets for 4 yards (9.7% adjusted share, down from 19.5%). He received a career-high 28 touches with 113 rushing yards—his most in a game since 2023—and scored his first touchdown since Week 1. However, Jordan Mason's Week 7 return from injured reserve is the date to plan around for moving away from Jones because this workload is just not sustainable. Jones ranks sixth in touches this season (109)—on pace for 370 touches, but he has had 300 touches only once (160 last season).
