Gibbs mentioned Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones as one of the players he looked up to during his time playing college football at Alabama.
for Week 4's rendition of Thursday Night Football. Standing on the opposite sideline will be a player Gibbs tried to emulate on his way to the NFL.
Jones has long frustrated NFL defenses with his dual-threat ability out of the backfield. The 28-year-old is one of only two running backs in the NFL, along with Austin Ekeler of the Los Angeles Chargers, with 45-plus catches and multiple TD receptions in each of the last four seasons. The seventh-year pro has 7,254 yards and 62 yards from scrimmage in his career.
Gibbs has 139 yards on the ground and 59 through the air through his first three NFL games. He has yet to reach the end zone in the NFL, but Gibbs is coming off his most productive performance as a pro. In Detroit's Week 3 win over the Atlanta Falcons, Gibbs acted as the team's lead back and ran for a career-high 80 yards.
