Aaron Jones (hip) did not practice Wednesday.

31 December 2025

Jones played through an ankle injury last week despite the Vikings having nothing left to play for. He could do so again in week 18, though it’s just as likely that he finally takes a week off. In addition to the ankle and hip injuries, Jones has been on the practice report with shoulder, toe, and hamstring issues this year. He has more than earned a week of rest to close the season. If that does happen, Jordan Mason would be in line for a larger role.
