Aaron Jones recovers necklace containing father's ashes after losing it during 4-touchdown game

Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones was the MVP during the team's 35-17 win over the Detroit Lions on Monday night. Jones scored four touchdowns during the contest, erasing concerns about the Packers' poor Week 1.

The performance meant a lot more to Jones, who dedicated the season to his father, Alvin, who died of COVID-19 complications in April. Jones wore a football-shaped necklace containing Alvin's ashes during Monday's game, but lost it during one of his end-zone celebrations.

Thankfully, Jones recovered the necklace Tuesday.

Jones posted a picture with the necklace Tuesday, thanking team trainer Bryan ”Flea” Engel for finding the pendant.

Jones spoke about losing the necklace following Monday's game. The Packers' grounds crew started looking for the necklace after the game. Jones said he would go look for it too, and added that his father would be happy Jones lost the necklace in the end zone.

Jones finished the contest with 67 rushing yards and one rushing touchdown. He also caught six passes for 48 yards and three scores, giving him four total touchdowns.
