LaFleur sounded more optimistic about Jones, saying, “he did what he needed to do today.”
Jones has missed six games this season due to injury, rushing for 245 yards and two touchdowns on 66 carries in seven games. In his absence, Dillion has led the Packers with 575 rushing yards and a TD on 164 totes in 13 contests.
Regardless of the backfield questions, expect the Packers to lean on Jordan Love and the passing game Sunday against a Buccaneers defense that ranks 29th in average pass EPA allowed and 5th in average rush EPA allowed, per Next Gen Stats.
Elsewhere on the Packers injury report, corner Jaire Alexander (shoulder), safety Darnell Savage (shoulder), corner Eric Stokes (hamstring – on IR), linebacker Quay Walker (shoulder), and receiver Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) are all questionable.
Wideout Christian Watson (hamstring) is doubtful to play. Receiver Jayden Reed, who has been dealing with an ankle injury, has no designation and is in line to play.
