Aaron Jones Expected To Play Week 8

Vikings RB Aaron Jones (hamstring) is expected to play vs. the Chargers tonight, according to Amazon's Kirk Herbstreit. Jones has been out since Week 2, was just designated to return from IR earlier this week, and got in only two limited practices. We'd be surprised if he played a big role tonight and would try to not use him in Week 8 fantasy lineups. But Jones' return certainly dings RB Jordan Mason's value. He's still a good bet to lead Minnesota in carries tonight but figures to cede passing-down work to Jones.
