Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones won't play Sunday versus the Houston Texans due to a calf problem that had him listed as questionable, according to ESPN's Rob Demovsky.
Left tackle David Bakhtiari will also miss the contest with a chest injury, while safety Darnell Savage will sit out with a quad issue.
Jones was expected to be a game-time decision for Week 7. The 25-year-old rushed for 389 yards and five touchdowns over his first five games, averaging 5.2 yards per carry.
With Jones on the shelf, the Packers figure to split backfield duties between Jamaal Williams and rookie A.J. Dillon.
Green Bay is coming off a blowout loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Packers have a 5-1 record.
