Jones got the pendant — a small black locket in the shape of a football — sometime in the past few months … following the tragic death of his dad, Alvin Jones Sr., who passed away in April at 57 years old from COVID-19 complications.
Aaron and Alvin were VERY close … and in an emotional press conference back in May, Aaron revealed he was dedicating the rest of his football career to his pops.
Aaron said Green Bay’s grounds crew was helping him look for the jewelry after the game had ended … though as of Tuesday morning, it still hadn’t been found.
Aaron, though, reiterated to reporters he’s sure his father would’ve been grinning ear-to-ear following his huge game regardless.
“Just go home and tell him, ‘I did it, Dad,'” Jones said of what he would’ve told his father after the game if he were still alive. “Went out there and played at a high level and gave it my all.”
