Even though Green Bay's Aaron Jones wasn't born in El Paso, he's lived here for so long & played with the UTEP Miners, he's absolutely become an honorary El Pasoan.

He's defended El Paso's food from being slandered, he has his own Bar & Grill in town called Showtyme, & he's even received a key to the city from Mayor Oscar Leeser for his charity work.

So of course whenever he plays, a lot of people root for him to win & obviously win a Super Bowl ring to join the coveted list of Super Bowl Winners from El Paso. We know he has the skills & abilities TO win & he's signed a contract to stay with Green Bay Packers until he becomes a free agent in 2025. So the big question is, can he win a ring with the Packers? And does El Paso think he can still do it?

Since Aaron Jones joined with the Packers in 2017, their last 3 seasons from 2019-2021, they've made it into the playoffs to get eliminated in the Conference Finals in 2019 & 2020 and the Divisional round in 2021. And even though they lost, Aaron Jones still became one of the top 100 players in 2021 according to the NFL.

So what does El Paso think? Do WE think Aaron Jones can win a Super Bowl? Well after posing THIS question online,

About 2/3 of the people who voted said yes while the other 1/3 said no. Me personally? I think Aaron Jones has proven to be a strong & resilient player. However... with Green Bay getting knocked out in the playoffs for 3 years straight, I'm not sure. I WANT to see Aaron win soon though. He deserves it.

We'll see what happens when the NFL season starts back up in September & I know regardless, myself & El Paso will be pulling for AJ to win that elusive ring.
