Gutekunst on Feb. 1 when asked about bringing Aaron Jones back in 2024: "Yeah, absolutely. We’d love to Aaron back. We’re still putting all those things together as far as how we’re going to move forward. But he was such a difference-maker when he was out there this year. ...
"The way our offense was able to move. He changed a lot of the way we operated when he was in there and when he was healthy. I think for us, it’s finding a way to keep him out there and keep him healthy. ...
"Not only on the field but -- and you guys know this, you guys have been around here -- he’s such an influential leader in our locker room. He’s just really the heartbeat of our team. That’s certainly the anticipation, that he’ll be back."
