Aaron Jones says he lost a pendant containing his dad's ashes on the field in the Packers' win over the Lions.
The Green Bay star -- who scored FOUR touchdowns in the Pack's 35-17 drubbing of Detroit -- told reporters after the game he believes he lost the necklace at some point during one of his endzone runs.Jones, though, was far from torn up over losing his dad's ashes ... in fact, he seemed to be at peace with it -- saying if he was going to lose it, he's sure glad it was in a touchdown scamper at Lambeau Field.
"If there was any place to lose it, that's where my dad would have wanted me to lose it," the 26-year-old running back said."I know he's smiling."
