What happened to Aaron Jones? Live injury updates for Lions at Vikings on Thursday 12/25/25

UPDATE: Jones has returned to the game.


Just before halftime of Thursday’s game between the Lions and Vikings, Aaron Jones went to the blue medical tent after being tackled.

Before exiting, Jones rushed 10 times for 37 yards and a touchdown. He also hauled in all three of his targets for 10 yards. With Jordan Mason out for this one, Zavier Scott would be next in line in the Minnesota backfield if Jones does not return.

Stay tuned to DK Network for live updates on his injury.
