EAGAN, Minn. — Aaron Jones has approached his new team in Minnesota and his looming 30th birthday with the aplomb a running back in the NFL needs these days to stay healthy and relevant. He's serious about trying to make the second act of his career as long and productive as the first. Jones said he believes he could play eight more seasons if given the opportunity. He missed six games last year with Green Bay because of hamstring and knee injuries. Jones has been taking extra time with the Vikings to work on injury prevention.
