Aaron Jones 'Week-to-Week' with Hip Injury


The good news: the Vikings are on bye this week, giving Jones some additional time to recover. However, with a week-to-week designation, there’s a chance that Jones could miss some action anyway – which would open the door for RB Ty Chandler as the team’s potential starter in Week 7. Of course, we won’t have much information to work with this week without injury reports to decode or press conferences to pick apart, so we’ll have to wait until next week to have a better idea of Jones’ status once the Vikings return from their week off. In the meantime, it certainly can’t hurt to grab Chandler off the waiver wire, who could step into a productive role on a very good offense. He’ll likely be a short-term addition assuming Jones’ recovery doesn’t hit any roadblocks, but there’s upside to be tapped here for as long as Jones is absent from the lineup. Should Chandler end up being the lead back for the Vikings, he’ll be a mid-low RB2 with upside in what could be an explosive matchup with the Lions two weeks from now.
