Unbeaten Vikings top Saints, Jones rushes 113 yards

Aaron Jones powered Minnesota’s 23-13 win over New Orleans with 25 carries for 113 yards and a touchdown, despite aggravating a leg injury and briefly leaving the game. With Jordan Mason sidelined by a thumb injury, Jones has carried an unusually heavy workload, raising concerns about his health and the need for backfield support. Mason was expected to return after Minnesota’s bye for its Week 7 game against Indianapolis, potentially easing the burden on Jones.
