AJ mentoring Claiborne
Mentioned a couple months ago how important Aaron Jones was going to be for Claiborne, and this would give this kid a chance to possibly make it. This is outstanding stuff.
This week Vikings rookie RB Demond Claiborne is going to be active for the first time (per KOC). Aaron Jones talked this week about his message to Claiborne when he was inactive last week.

I can't imagine how much better it must feel to be a young player and have Jones there to…
Dang impressive on multiple levels. The first that Jones recognizes something special in Claiborne. He is trying to to keep him physically and mentally involved. This isn’t a one off either. Jones is doing everything he can to make sure he is ready when his number is called.
A Jones may be old for a RB, but what a great locker room presence...
Players like Jones, AVG, Harry, Van Noy, Jettas are great people to have on the team - not just great athletes.
Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!
I think Claiborne is RB2 today. Sure be nice to see him break one...or two.

Break one lol. We don’t do that anymore.
like to see him get the ball on swing or late release... get him in open space and he can be special
