The Green Bay Packers have signed running back Patrick Taylor, indicating that Aaron Jones' return from a hamstring injury has taken a turn for the worse. Jones experienced a setback and is unlikely to play against the Las Vegas Raiders. AJ Dillon will take over as the No. 1 running back in Jones' absence. The Packers have also elevated cornerback Corey Ballentine from the practice squad as insurance in case Jaire Alexander is unable to play.
