Aaron Jones Sr., RB (MIN)

Back at practice Thursday

Jones (knee) was present for the open portion of Thursday's practice, Kevin Seifert of ESPN reports.

Jones looks to be trending up after missing practice Wednesday. He took on a significant workload in Jordan Mason's absence in Week 2 with 23 carries, but did not come out unscathed. The veteran isn't a sure thing to play in Week 3 at this stage, though the current trajectory is encouraging. If Jones is ultimately unable to suit up, DeeJay Dallas and Demond Claiborne would be next up for the Vikings.
