Right now, the 7th-most pass-heavy team in the NFL (62.5% in a neutral context) according to the projections is the Minnesota Vikings.Aaron Jones has been used more as a potential pass-catcher this year (49.3% Route% in games he has been on the field) than he did last year (37.6%).The projections expect Aaron Jones to total 3.3 targets in this week's game, on average, placing him in the 76th percentile among RBs.Aaron Jones has accrued a colossal 4.0 air yards per game this year: 96th percentile when it comes to running backs. (This might not seem like very many, but most RBs average negative air yards given that they are usually targeted behind the line of scrimmage).Aaron Jones's 30.0 adjusted yards per game on passes this season indicates a substantial gain in his receiving skills over last season's 20.0 rate.
