Fantasy outlook
Jones is back for a third season in Minnesota after an injury-plagued 2025 campaign limited him to 747 yards (his fewest since his rookie season in 2017) and three touchdowns in 12 games. Jones remained fairly busy (11.0 carries and 3.4 targets per game) but didn't perform well, ranking dead last among 65 backs with 50-plus carries in forced missed tackle rate and elusive rating, per PFF. Jones failed to record a single top-10 fantasy outing. Now 31 years old, Jones remains a starter and will get some run, but he's well past his prime and unlikely to return to consistent fantasy output. Jones is best valued as a bench player with occasional flex appeal.
