From the article

Aaron Jones has taken on a heavy load this past month while Mason was on IR with a thumb injury and has done admirably for his age in that situation. But Jones doesn't really force many missed tackles anymore, even as he is generally able to get what's blocked for him. And he's simply not a back that strikes fear in opposing defenses anymore.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalUsage

Jones admirably filled in but doesn't force missed tackles or scare defenses.

Aaron Jones has taken on a heavy load this past month while Mason was on IR with a thumb injury and has done admirably for his age in that situation. However, he doesn't really force many missed tackles anymore, even as he is generally able to get what's blocked for him. He's simply not a back that strikes fear in opposing defenses anymore, suggesting limited upside as a primary option.
