Vikings’ Aaron Jones is week to week with hip injury, avoiding long-term absence
MINNEAPOLIS — The Minnesota Vikings are treating running back Aaron Jones’ right hip injury as a week-to-week condition, coach Kevin O’Connell said Tuesday. The Vikings, who are the only undefeated team remaining in the NFC, have begun their bye week and don’t play again until Oct. 20 against Detroit. “All the early information that we’ve got so far, it looks like we’ve avoided a long-term injury,” said O’Connell, who was hoping Jones could begin to work his way back into practice next week after receiving treatment during the bye week, but his status for the Lions game in Week 7 was unclear. “I’ve got a lot of confidence in Ty, really going back to last year when he really emerged for us like he did in the second half of last season,” O’Connell said.
