Aaron Jones really didn’t want to leave Green Bay.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported Friday morning the Packers and Jones agreed on a reduced salary of $11 million this season, per agent Drew Rosenhaus.
The Packers running back was set to make $16 million non-guaranteed in 2022. Jones remains under contract for next season at $12 million, which wasn’t touched in the new agreement.
Jones is coming off a season where he rushed for 1,121 yards and two touchdowns.
