Jones cleared to play after knee injury but shows age-related decline; flex only if TD.

Aaron Jones sustained a knee injury in the fourth quarter last week but will play this week with no injury designation. He did not practice Wednesday, had limited Thursday practice, and full Friday practice. In the first three quarters before injury, Jones had a 35% snap rate, eight opportunities, 35% of rushing work, and 28.6% route share (5.3% target share). The source has low expectations due to age-related decline: only 8.7% explosive run rate and 12% missed tackle rate. He could be a decent flex only if he scores.
