The Tennessee Titans were easily defeated by the Green Bay Packers.
Sadly, the Minnesota Vikings kept up their winning streak, defeating the Houston Texans to improve to 3-0 on the season. Aaron Jones, a former running back for the Packers, is currently a part of the Vikings offense. Following the Vikings’ decisive victory, Jones may have taken a dig at his old team.
After the game, Jones commented to Tom Pelissero, “This is probably some of the most fun I’ve had in my career.”
Given how long he was a Green Bay Packers player, the comment may have irked some supporters.
“This has got to be some of the most enjoyable times I’ve had working here.”

Ahead of a crucial Week 4 matchup, was Aaron Jones aiming a jab at the Packers?
After Green Bay selected Jones with a fifth-round choice in the 2017 NFL Draft, Jones spent seven years with the team. He made the contentious choice to join with the Packers’ main rival this offseason after emerging as one of the team’s finest running backs in franchise history, and he has since assisted the Vikings in their perfect start.
In his third game as a Viking, Jones had himself a huge day as the Vikings trounced the previously unbeaten Texans 34-7. He ran for 102 yards, had 42 receiving yards, and a receiving score. The Packers will host Jones and his new squad in an upcoming television show that won’t soon be missed.
Although it’s likely that Jones didn’t aim to offend the Packers with this remark, it’s understandable if some supporters may have seen it that way. Jones has stated that he will return to Green Bay the week before for the first time since signing with another team, so perhaps this will give the Packers defense more incentive to step up and contain Jones.
