Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones will return to action Sunday against Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Jones missed the Packers' last three games as he rehabbed a knee injury.

The 29-year-old rushed for 245 yards and two scores in seven games. Jones was a limited participant in practice sessions this week leading up to Sunday's contest.

Tailback AJ Dillon is inactive after missing a pair of practices and being a limited participant in Friday's session due to a thumb injury. Dillon led the Packers' halfbacks in Jones' absence. He tops the team with 574 yards and has rushed for one score.

Green Bay is looking to bounce back from a loss to the New York Giants on Monday Night Football.
