Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones is currently dealing with a right hip injury that has made him week-to-week, as confirmed by head coach Kevin O'Connell. Jones exited the game against the New York Jets early and did not return, but initial evaluations suggest that he may have avoided a long-term injury. The Vikings are heading into a bye week, and it remains uncertain if Jones will be ready for their Week 7 matchup against the Detroit Lions. In his absence, backup Ty Chandler will likely take over the starting role, although he struggled in the last game.
- Aaron Jones is week-to-week with a hip injury.
- Backup Ty Chandler will step in if Jones cannot play after the bye week.
