Huddle Up: Jones is coming off one of his best seasons in the NFL and will continue to receive most of the work at running back for the Vikings next season. He can be a No. 2 or No. 3 running back in fantasy leagues.

Minnesota Vikings impending free-agent RB Aaron Jones is a player the Vikings are interested in re-signing this offseason.
Huddle Up: Jones rushed for a career-high 1,138 yards this past season and probably will receive most of the work at running back if he stays with the Vikings. He can be at least a No. 3 running back in all fantasy leagues next season.

The Minnesota Vikings and RB Aaron Jones mutually agreed to push back the void date on his contract from Monday, Feb. 17, to Tuesday, March 11, which is the day before NFL free agency officially begins.
Huddle Up: Jones' one-year deal contained four void years to lessen the blow on Minnesota's 2024 cap sheet but would have immediately made him a free agent and given the Vikings a sizable 2025 cap hit of $3.2 million if no action had been taken. Although there is no guarantee that he will return to the club next season, this gives the two sides additional time to hammer out a possible extension. Jones had a productive year in 2024 and can be viewed as a starting option in 2025 fantasy leagues regardless of where he lands.
