Then all-in on the river. Let him make the decision to fold JJ then, when he's more emotionally invested in the big pot that he's put a lot of money in.

Some more rangey stuff:
ignoring the 3 combos of AA for moment because we're never folding vs this villain -
I'd still give a stationy player a small scoop of AK combos he cant get away from (maybe weight it to only 2 or 3 of the suited ones say) still vs maybe 4 QJs for OESD+bdfd and his JJ-KK range and you can see how bad that A is for our action. Those QJ hands however are really super dependent on his open raise range. So even with the optimistic AK combos, the bulk of what he's holding is afraid of the A.
If he's opening a little wider & he's the optimistic type vs your raise on a wet board like that, we can start adding some AQ but the truth is - he really doesnt have a lot of A's here and that card should slow him down.
So many of the other combos (T8, AT, etc) he would be limp/calling if his raise from EP range is small.
So you can really see he doesnt have a lot of Ax happening.
So this turn bet size revolves around your assessment of his opening range and then more specifically - what part of it continues vs your flop raise and just remember that he most likely has a limp/call range which will limit the bizarre hands (97, T8 etc) from his raising range.
He's going to make the river easy for you to play as well.
