Aaron Jones takes a cheap shot at Packers after Vikings blowout win over Texans
The Green Bay Packers took care of business against the Tennessee Titans.
Unfortunately, the Minnesota Vikings continued their winning ways, blowing out the Houston Texans and moving to 3-0 on the year. Former Packers running back Aaron Jones is now a member of the Vikings offense, and he might have taken a shot at his former team after the Vikings' blowout win.
While speaking to Tom Pelissero after the game, Jones said: "This is probably some of the most fun I've had in my career."
The comment might have irritated Packers fans a bit considering how long he was in Green Bay.
Was Aaron Jones taking a shot at the Packers ahead of key Week 4 matchup?
Jones spent seven years in Green Bay after the team spent a fifth-round pick on him in the 2017 NFL Draft. After becoming one of the greatest running backs in franchise history, he made a controversial decision to sign with the Packers' key rival this offseason, and so far, has helped the Vikings get off to an undefeated start.
Jones rushed for 102 yards and had 42 receiving yards along with a receiving touchdown in the Vikings' 34-7 blowout win over the previously undefeated Texans, so he had himself a big day in his third game as a Viking. Next week, the Packers will host Jones and his new team in what's going to be must-see TV.
Truthfully, Jones might not have meant anything mean by this comment and it probably wasn't a shot at the Packers, but it's understandable if fans might have taken it that way. After all, Jones said that the week before he'll head back to Green Bay for the first time since signing elsewhere, so maybe this will be extra motivation for the Packers defense to come alive and slow Jones down.
